Three children and a man were found dead in what police are investigating as a possible murder-suicide at a public park, according to Georgia authorities.
An officer was patrolling at about 1 a.m. Wednesday, May 8, and came upon a “suspicious” car parked on a walking trail at Lucky Shoals Park in Tucker, Gwinnett County police said in a news release.
After calling out and getting no response, the officer approached the vehicle and found four bodies inside.
The driver was a man, police said. The children, two girls and a boy, appeared to be elementary- and middle school-aged, according to authorities.
None of the victims have been publicly identified, pending notification of next-of-kin.
Police didn’t release additional details but said the incident is under investigation.
Tucker is about a 15-mile drive northeast from downtown Atlanta.
