WEST HAVEN, Utah — A woman and her three children were found shot to death in a car in Utah. Authorities said they do not believe there is an ongoing threat to the public but have not said what they believe happened.
A family member called 911 just before 10 p.m. Tuesday to report that the four people were dead in a vehicle at a residence in West Haven, a town near Ogden and north of Salt Lake City, Weber County officials said. A 32-year-old woman, a 4-year-old boy, a 2-year-old girl and a 1-year-old girl died, Weber County Sheriff’s Sgt. Sean Endsley told KSL-TV. Their names were not released.
The deaths were reported a day after an 8-year-old boy in Lehi, south of Salt Lake, accidentally killed himself when he got hold of a loaded gun left in the car while his mother was inside a convenience store.
