"LONGVIEW, TX — Three people have been found dead at a house in Longview in what police are investigating as a double murder and a suicide.

"A police statement Saturday afternoon said the cause of death is pending, but it appeared all three had been shot. Autopsies have been ordered.

"Sgt. Ben Kemper says a call Saturday morning about the welfare of the residents led to the discovery of the bodies of two males and a female. All three were adults.

"Kemper told The Associated Press that neighbors noticed that newspapers had been piling up in the front yard since Thursday.
