A father shot dead three of his own children Monday before turning the gun on himself in a U.S. church, police said.
A fifth person also died in the shooting in Sacramento, California, though it was not clear if that person was related to what police said was a domestic incident.
All three children who died were under the age of 15, Sergeant Rod Grassmann of Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office told reporters.
“We have found now there’s an adult male, a father who has shot and killed his three children under the age of 15,” he added.
“And my understanding is that there is a fifth person that is also deceased. I don’t know if they are related.”
Police said they were not looking for anyone else involved in the shooting at The Church of Sacramento in the Arden Arcade area of the city.
“This is as far as I can see, at this point, a domestic violence-related sort of incident,” Grassmann said.
California Governor Gavin Newsom called the murders “senseless” in a Twitter posting.
“Another senseless act of gun violence in America – this time in our backyard. In a church with kids inside,” he said.
“Absolutely devastating. Our hearts go out to the victims, their families and their communities.”
Mass killings involving firearms are a distressingly common occurrence in the United States.
Lax gun laws and an insistence on the right to bear arms have repeatedly stymied attempts to clamp down on the number of weapons in circulation, despite greater controls being favored by the majority of Americans.
