San Francisco Suspected Murder-Suicide leaves 5 Dead

The bodies of five people were found scattered inside a San Francisco home today in what police said was a possible murder-suicide, across the street from a private high school in a quiet, middle-class neighborhood.

A woman with access to the house, who is believed to be related to the victims, discovered three of the bodies and called police shortly before 8 a.m., according to police spokeswoman Cmdr. Lyn Tomioka.

When officers arrived, they found a total of five dead adults - three women and two men. Tomioka said at least four of the victims were related, and investigators were looking into the identity of the fifth.

At least two of the victims were shot, but investigators were still looking into the cause of death for the others, Tomioka said.

The spokeswoman stopped short of confirming it was a murder-suicide but said no suspects were being sought outside the home. Read More
