CHICAGO – Police say they believe six people found dead inside a Chicago home were killed in a “targeted incident,” though they’re still trying to determine a possible motive.
Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi (goo-lee-EHL’-mee) said Friday night the killings could have occurred during a robbery or a domestic incident.
He says it’s also possible someone in the home “was involved in something that could have targeted them.”
Officers found the bodies of six family members — two men, two women and two children — in the house they shared on Thursday.
Police initially said it was possible one person killed the other five before taking his or her own life. They said there was no sign of forced entry and the home hadn’t been ransacked.
But the medical examiner’s office ruled the deaths homicides Friday.
