Couple, 7-Year-Old Son Killed In Ohio Home Invasion

He said Kirk yelled, “It wasn’t me, it wasn’t me”. His hands were up as he was fleeing, but then, according to Carreker, he turned towards the cops and reached for his waist. All the victims suffered multiple gunshot wounds, said Columbus police Sgt. Rich Weiner. Officers gave chase and shot the man, he said. None of the officers was wounded.

A Columbus police statement says 31-year-old Ivey Sankey of Columbus was arrested Monday on a charge of murder in the stabbing death of 29-year-old Shirley Minnifield. A weapon was found near the suspect, he added.

The child was taken to a nearby hospital.

Detectives have been able to talk to the surviving daughter, who is expected to make a full recovery, the Dispatch wrote. A man who was a family friend who lived in the house called it a “home invasion” in a second call. “Please help”, a girl’s voice says, the AP wrote. Lozier said his brother was shot as he walked into the back of his house. He had been inside after the shooting and saw his brother lying on the kitchen floor.

Lozier said he had talked to John at 4:30, about a half-hour before the shootings.

In a statement released late Monday night, Columbus police said at approximately 5 p.m., police received a report of a shooting.

Christina was on the phone with 911 dispatchers when Kirk shot and killed her, and the couple’s 7-year-old son, Landon.

Police said the suspect shot four people inside the home. “He loved his kids, he loved his job, he loved his wife”.

“It was a good, solid family”, Lozier said.

Makyleigh went to Burroughs last year for fifth grade, but transferred to a charter school this year.
