Three children, aged 9 to 13, were killed in what police believe is a murder-suicide after their mother agreed to let an ex-partner take them to get something to eat, officials in Georgia said. A police officer patrolling Lucky Shoals Park in Norcross, about 20 miles northeast of Atlanta, discovered the bodies of three children and an adult male shortly after 1 a.m. Wednesday inside a vehicle parked on a walking trail.
Police said the mother was at the hospital because another one of her children had an unrelated injury. Plasencia was the father of the injured child, police said, and had met the mother and children at the hospital. 'After some time the mother agreed to let the three children go with the suspect to grab a bite to eat while she remained at the hospital,' police said in a statement on Facebook. Gwinnett County Police Sgt. Michele Pihera called the incident a tragedy.
