A family dispute took an ugly turning when family discovered dead of five members in their home on Thursday night. The terrible incident occurred in Phoenix, Arizona which has caused death of three brothers, their mother and one of the men’s wives, as told by the police.
As per a source, one of the victims had shot at others before committing suicide.
"We believe this is a family dispute of some sort that has gone terribly wrong," told Phoenix police sgt. Trent Crump.
Police had reached the spot an hour after the firing. They responded to a call reporting that shots had been fired about 2 p.m (5 p.m. ET). Police are trying to reconstruct the situation so as to find out what caused the death of victims.
A 30-year-old woman along with two young children managed to escape through the back door. Another woman escaped after hiding for about an hour.
Police said the total investigation of the incident will take some time as the woman who got out alive does not know English. Due to the language barrier, they are not able to come to a final conclusion.
According to news, the family is believed to be from Morocco and FBI has called for an Arabic interpreter.
