(West Valley City, UT) — Homicide investigators are called in after five family members, including three children, were found dead in a West Valley City home yesterday. Officers discovered the bodies of a 42-year-old man, 38-year-old woman, 11-year-old boy, 9-year-old girl, and 2-year-old girl inside the house on Oxford Way. A 17-year-old boy was found with gunshot wounds in the garage and taken to the hospital. Police were alerted after a family member, unable to reach the woman who lived there, entered the house.
