Deputies responded to a welfare check request for a home in the Orchards Neighborhood around 1 pm.

According to cops, a person had reported a text message from one of the family members saying they had “harmed others” at the home.

Upon arrival at the home, there was no response from inside the house and due to the severity of the claims that sparked the welfare check, a tactical team was deployed to the scene.

An examination of the property with a drone concluded that several people appeared dead and medics and response teams entered the home.

Five people were found dead from gunshot wounds with deputies saying that the suspect was one of them.
