Washington: According to the Seattle Times, three Indians were found dead after shootings in a house in Newcastle, Washington, USA. Brandyn Hull, a spokesman for King County Sheriff, said sheriff’s deputies responded to the No. 911 call at the townhouse on April 24 at around 7 p.m.
According to a report from the American media, detectives found blood in the front window and there was a lonely hollow bullet on the street. Shwetha Panyam (41) and Dhruva Kikkeri (14) died of gunshot wounds. According to the Medical Examiner’s Office, the deaths of Panyam and Dhruva are classified as homicides, while Harshavardhana Kikkeri (44) died due to suicide.
Brandyn Hull said she could not claim whether the case was considered a murder suicide, according to the Seattle Times. “This investigation takes time and our detectives are working hard to piece together the causes of this incident,” she said in a statement Monday.
“The sheriff’s office will not be updated further until this work is over,” she added. According to the Seattle Times, homeowners association president Alex Gumina said a family of four — a husband, wife and two sons — lives at home, mostly living in the home. The Sheriff’s Office has not released any other information, including any signs of motivation or relationships shared by the deceased.
