Oklahoma police investigating murder-suicide after 8 die in house fire, say both adults are suspects
Given the condition of the residence after the fire damage, Broken Arrow Police classified the fire scene as a difficult scenario. The police are now investigating the incident as a murder-suicide.

The six young children were found after the first responders saw two adults in the front of the house, according to Broken Arrow Police Chief Brandon Berryhill at a press conference on Friday. Children were found in one room at the back of the house, where the majority of the fire was contained, according to fire chief Jeremy Moore.
Jeremy Moore said his heart sank when he arrived on the site yesterday and saw how the first responders and firemen were reacting. According to Brandon Berryhill, the killings are being investigated as a murder-suicide and both adults are suspects.
According to Jeremy Moore, it seemed unlikely that any of the victims perished in the fire. Brandon Berryhill said that weapons had been retrieved from the house.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives spokesperson, Sara Abel, stated that the organization is aiding local police in tracing guns seized in the residence but she was unable to provide any information regarding the kind or quantity of firearms.
On Thursday, at around 4 pm, a peaceful residential region of Broken Arrow, Tulsa's largest suburb with around 115,000 inhabitants, received a fire complaint.
