## Summary

A toddler with medical disabilities and his two grandparents were found dead from apparent gunshot wounds in a home in Gnadenhutten, Ohio. The sheriff said investigators currently believe the evidence points towards a murder-suicide, making the circumstances of the deaths the focus of an ongoing investigation.

Deputies were sent to the home after an unanswered 911 call was returned and someone softly said “help”. Investigators traced the call to the house, where a great-grandmother let them in; the victims were identified as 22-month-old Kozzar Lotut, Melissa Campbell, 51, and Gale Sanders, 67. Autopsies are under way, and the cause and manner of death remain pending.
