It called in the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation to assist after police arrived at the scene. Investigators said the victims were all family: a mother, father and son.
Officers went to the home just after 2 a.m. on Wednesday after a friend of one of the residents called to request a well-being check. Detectives said in their initial investigation that all three died from apparent gunshot wounds in a suspected murder-suicide. Officers did not see signs of forced entry inside the home.
