Some 911 calls were released by the Ohio police in relation to the deaths of eight family members reported last Friday. The tragic occurrence has officially forced the authorities to take drastic measures, proceeding with a manhunt for the alleged suspect behind the killings.
According to NBC New York, a female caller was quoted on her statements, saying, "There's blood all over the house! I think my brother-in-law's dead. I think they're both dead." The call was placed at 7:49 in the morning, which led to the caller eventually breaking down into tears as heard through one of the two recordings released last Saturday by the state attorney general's office.
Daily Mail delivered that the police still does not have any one in their custody for the killings. The tragic killing took place in a small, rural town east of Cincinnati named Piketon. As for the autopsy, the names of the victims were officially released by the police, along with some of the more notable assessments regarding the deaths.
As per NBC News, the victims were identified as Hannah Gilley, 20 years old; Christopher Rhoden Sr. at 40 years old; Christopher Rhoden Jr. 16, Clarence "Frankie" Rhoden, 20; Dana Rhoden, 37 years old; Gary Rhoden, 38; Hanna Rhoden, 19 years old and lastly, Kenneth Rhoden, 44. It was concluded by the authorities that some of the family members were killed as they were asleep, including a mother that laid in bed with her 4-day-old baby not so far from her, not hurt along with two other small children and was declared to have not been self-inflicted.
Motives are currently being studied by the authorities and are looking for a possible person of interest for the particular scenario, but dismissed by Attorney General Mike DeWine that can be linked to the aforementioned deaths. He reached out his deepest sympathy to the family of the victims.
The Pike County's sheriff finalized that until the case has been brought to a fitting end, residents of the area, and with specification, the relatives, are to take full precaution as the assailants are presumed armed and extremely dangerous. For the time being, the case is still on-going, in search of the suspect for said tragic happening.
