On Saturday, police found three women dead inside a home in Columbus.
Shortly before 4 p.m., officers received a call from a person who had found a friend in medical distress inside his home.
“We are currently investigating the circumstances of the death to determine what actually happened before releasing any information,” said Sgt. James Fuqua, public information officer for the Columbus Police Department.
Fuqua said when authorities arrived, they found three female victims inside, all of whom were pronounced dead at the scene.
“It's unfortunate that someone loses their life, but especially during this time of year during the holidays,” Fuqua said. “It will be very difficult for the entire victim's family to understand that, unfortunately, this family no longer exists in this world.”
Officials said they are treating the matter as an active homicide investigation and are working to confirm the circumstances of the death.
No one is in custody at this time and the person who reported the incident is not a suspect.
Fuqua called the case “a very complex situation.”
“Unfortunately, it is very unusual for so many victims to be involved in a single incident, so it will take some time before we can carefully investigate the scene to ensure we don't miss any important evidence.” “It takes time,” he added.
Authorities are asking anyone who may have information about this incident to call the Columbus Police Homicide Unit at 614-645-4730 or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers at 614-461-TIPS (8477). calling out.
