Six people were killed in the northwestern U.S. state of Washington on Christmas eve, the King County Sheriff's Department said on Wednesday.
The six, including a six-year-old girl and a three-year-old boy, were shot dead at home near Carnation, a small town some 30 km east of Seattle, the department said.
The victims also included a man and a woman in their 50s, and a man and a woman in their 30s, police said, adding that further details about the victims' identities were not available yet.
Police have ruled out the possibility of murder-suicide.
The bodies were first discovered by a co-worker of one of the victims, who later called the police.
