The Capital Region collective news focus in recent days has been on the deaths of four family members in Guilderland, in an incident that apparently took place in broad daylight.
At Guilderland Town Hall Thursday morning, Albany County District Attorney David Soares, Guilderland Police Chief Carol Lawlor, and State Police Captain Scott Coburn updated the media, although with limited information, on the quadruple murder that occurred Wednesday afternoon at 1846 Western Ave. It’s a busy stretch near Crossgates mall; one lane was closed off as investigators from several agencies converged on the house.
“The call came in yesterday afternoon as an EMS call. When police arrived they realized it was a homicide scene, and an investigation began," said Lawlor.
DA David Soares said the investigation is in its infancy and stressed that any information that the public may have should be turned over to law enforcement.
Chief Lawlor confirmed four victims; a 37-year-old male, 39-year-old female, and two male children, ages 7 and 10, all of Asian descent. The children were confirmed as students at Guilderland Elementary School.
Police are asking anyone with information to call 1-800-GIVE-TIP.
