I understand from the first story, all the specifics are not laid out, but read the second link - 2 sets of twins PLUS an 8 year old and mom and dad = 7

The LAPD says 'at least five' and then Officer Park goes on to say 'approximately five to seven'

I am a bit confused.

One body. two bodies. Three bodies. Oh, and look, another = four bodies. Not approximately 4, it is very exactly 4. Or 7 in this case, unless there is some question as to their counting skills.

It is silliness like this that make you wonder about the functioning level of some people.


Not to mention the tragedy itself which is beyond words.




At least 5 dead in apparent murder-suicide in LA

Tuesday, January 27, 2009

(01-27) 10:12 PST LOS ANGELES (AP) --

Los Angeles police say at least five people, including children, have been found dead in a home of an apparent murder-suicide.


Officer Sam Park says officers went to the home in Wilmington Tuesday morning after getting a report of shots fired. Wilmington is an area of Los Angeles about 25 miles south of downtown.
Park says investigators have found "approximately five to seven bodies" in the house.

He says investigators believe the dead are family members and that the killer is among them.
News helicopters showed a sizable two-story tract home with a red tiled roof on a tidy street. A children's playset was in the backyard.



(This version CORRECTS that Wilmington is a part of Los Angeles.)
