An investigation remains ongoing and forensic examination of the home is still under way.

Police are still taking statements from witnesses and speaking to locals around Coonabarabran.

While the local community comes to terms with the tragedy, a family member has issued a statement paying tribute to the boys.

“They were lively, energetic kids, always on the move. Full of life, they were involved in activities like soccer and karate, and were as mischievous and adorable as can be,” the statement noted.

NSW Premier Chris Minns yesterday described the incident as a “tragedy”.

“This tragic event is devastating, and as a state, we join the Coonabarabran community in mourning the loss of these young boys who had their entire lives ahead of them,” Minns stated.

“I cannot begin to imagine the heartbreak their loved ones are currently feeling, including their family, friends, and teachers.

“I thank the local officers who attended the scene for their professionalism and bravery in the face of such a horrible event.”

Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
