Six people, including two children, were found shot to death Tuesday night in an apparent murder-suicide in South Carolina, authorities said.


Greenwood County Sheriff Tony Davis said at a news briefing that the victims were found after a 911 call from a home on Callison Highway, about 20 miles south of Greenville. They ranged from 9 years old to their early 50s, he said.




Davis said that about 6 p.m. ET, officers got a 911 call from a man who said he was feeling "edgy" and was going to harm himself. Treating the incident as a hostage situation, deputies called in a negotiator, but there was no response from inside the home.


A SWAT team was brought in to enter the home, where the bodies were discovered, Davis said.

The State Law Enforcement Division told NBC News it was investigating the case but couldn't confirm any details.
