According to the sheriff’s department, three children and two adult victims were found dead. A juvenile suspect is in custody. The sheriff’s department said it was not clear if there was a relationship between the suspect and victims.

 

 

The sheriff’s department reported that a person in her mid-teens was hospitalized.
