Three children and their mother were found dead at a home in Danbury, Connecticut Wednesday night. The official results of the autopsy are pending, but police said it appears that the mother strangled her three children, then took her own life.
Police said the mayor’s office and the city’s police, fire, health, education, emergency management, and health departments, along with Nuvance Health have coordinated efforts to provide services to the family and friends. They added that this is also an emotionally damaging incident for first responders and services have been extended to public safety personnel who responded to the scene. “A truly horrible event occurred in our city yesterday and we mourn the tragic loss of life.
