The nonpartisan archive defines a mass murder as one in which four or more victims are killed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">The case was also among more than 425 mass shootings \u2013 in which four or more victims are killed or wounded \u2013 across the US so far this year, according to the archive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">An emailed statement on Monday evening from King county council member Sarah Perry said the shooting involved a family of seven people. Three of those found slain on Monday were young teenagers, and two were adults. A sixth person was injured.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"fff30df5-a401-468a-8cde-d53462962d53\" data-spacefinder-role=\"richLink\" data-spacefinder-type=\"model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.RichLinkBlockElement\" class=\" dcr-1your1i\"><gu-island name=\"RichLinkComponent\" priority=\"feature\" deferuntil=\"idle\" props=\"{&quot;richLinkIndex&quot;:4,&quot;element&quot;:{&quot;_type&quot;:&quot;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.RichLinkBlockElement&quot;,&quot;prefix&quot;:&quot;Related: &quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;US man kills family and self over plan to sell mother\u2019s home soon after her death&quot;,&quot;elementId&quot;:&quot;fff30df5-a401-468a-8cde-d53462962d53&quot;,&quot;role&quot;:&quot;richLink&quot;,&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/article\/2024\/aug\/27\/us-man-kils-family&quot;},&quot;ajaxUrl&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/api.nextgen.guardianapps.co.uk&quot;,&quot;format&quot;:{&quot;design&quot;:0,&quot;display&quot;:0,&quot;theme&quot;:0}}\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">A neighbor told the local television news outlet KING that a couple and their five children lived in the home where the mass murder occurred.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Several people in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/Fall+City,+WA+98024\/@47.5706236,-122.1996649,10z\/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x5490775781eaa739:0x9a39fdca8e12df0b!8m2!3d47.5673237!4d-121.8887269!16zL20vMDEwcmRy?entry=ttu&amp;g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTAxNi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">Fall City<\/a> called 911 at about 5am to report the shooting, King county sheriff\u2019s office spokesperson Mike Mellis said at a media briefing on Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Arriving deputies immediately took one teenager into custody while another teen who had been hurt was taken to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/seattle\" data-link-name=\"in body link\" data-component=\"auto-linked-tag\">Seattle<\/a> hospital, Mellis said. Both teens lived at the house, he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Deputies entering the home then discovered the bodies of five people, Mellis said. Two were adults, and three were described by Mellis as young teenagers. No names have been released yet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">\u201cOnce bodies were discovered, clearly we understand that this is a hugely significant crime scene,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Mellis said there was no ongoing threat to the community.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">\u201cI have no reason to think that there will be any additional arrests,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">The teen in custody was booked into King county\u2019s juvenile detention facility, according to Mellis. The teen will appear in court for a first hearing on Tuesday or Wednesday, a spokesperson for the county prosecutor\u2019s office said in an email.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Neighbor Lynne Trowern told KING: \u201cI\u2019m just in total shock, I keep bursting into tears.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Local sheriff Patricia Cole-Tindall told KING that she was \u201cvery sad, very disturbed\u201d to learn about the shooting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">The killings in Fall City seem to broadly fit the definition of a type of crime known since the 1980s as family annihilations. Those cases often involve a person with a gun who murders multiple close family members.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Communities in the US have the tendency to interpret family annihilations as isolated tragedies. But a 2023 Indianapolis Star investigation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indystar.com\/story\/news\/investigations\/2023\/07\/13\/family-annihilation-investigation-domestic-violence-murder-suicide\/69937389007\/\" data-link-name=\"in body link\">found<\/a> they had been occurring across the US \u2013 on average \u2013 once every five days.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">The US perhaps does not understand family annihilations as well as it could because there is no centralized database for that kind of crime providing insights into characteristics or prevalence, as the Star investigation noted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Annually high rates of mass shootings and mass murders in the US have prompted some in the country to call for more substantial federal gun control. But Congress has been unable or unwilling to implement such measures.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\"><em>The Associated Press contributed reporting<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2024\/oct\/22\/five-dead-seattle-shooting\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Authorities found five people shot to death inside a home south-east of Seattle on Monday morning and arrested a teenager in connection with the killings, police said.
