The Latest: Wife filed for divorce before murder-suicide
Authorities say the husband gunned down his wife outside a drug store and killed their children at an apartment before shooting himself Wednesday.
The Clark County coroner's office said the youngest child, 9-year-old Anhurak Jason Dej-Oudom, died of a gunshot wound to the head.
Police say there were previous domestic violence reports involving a family of five who died Wednesday in a murder-suicide at two locations in Las Vegas.
Police Lt. Dan McGrath says authorities received at least two previous reports of domestic violence involving the family — one this month at the same apartment, and one out of state a decade ago.
Authorities say a man chased and gunned down his wife outside a drug store and killed their three children at an apartment in Las Vegas before apparently shooting himself, leaving five members of a family dead.
McGrath says a relative of the husband contacted police about 8 p.m. after getting a text message from the husband suggesting he was distraught and suicidal at the apartment.
