Suspected shooter, four others found dead in three homes

KANSAS (AP) – Five men were found shot to death inside three homes in the same area of Wichita, Kansas in the United States (US) and police believe the shootings are connected.

Police Chief Joe Sullivan said one of those found dead was the suspected shooter, but he declined to elaborate. Police believe all five knew each other, but the nature of their relationships weren’t disclosed.

Police said that the men ranged in age from 39 to 68. Officers were called to a report of a shooting at 5.44pm and found one man dead inside a home. Officers following up on his death went to a home a few blocks away and found three other people dead, police said in a news release.

Officers canvassing that neighbourhood looked into the window of a third home and saw a fifth victim, police said.

“We have five victims who are deceased from gunshots,” Sullivan told reporters. “We believe that the investigation will determine that one of those victims was the shooter of all the other victims.”
