Four members of an Alabama family, including two teen girls, are dead following a triple murder suicide in St Clair County Sunday morning.
Deputies from the St Clair County Sheriff’s Office along with officers from the Riverside and Pell City Police Departments responded to a call about a suicidal person shortly before 10 a.m., AL.com reported.
Law enforcement found a man armed with a handgun outside home, who shot himself as officers arrived.
He was identified Sunday afternoon as William Huntoon Vance, 54.
Inside, officers found Vance’s wife, 51-year-old Florence Diane Vance, and the couple’s two children, ages 16 and 13. They were all dead with gunshot wounds.
