KATY, TX (KTRK) -- A family of four has been found dead in what authorities say appears to be a murder-suicide in Grayson Lakes, a Katy-area subdivision.

According to the Fort Bend County Sheriff's office, the four victims were all found dead of gunshot wounds in a home in the 1300 block of Longdraw Drive around 9:30am.

Authorities were called to the home by relatives who requested a welfare check. The victims were found in various bedrooms, officials say.

The victims were identified as 37-year-old Jeremy Raju Srinivasan and 35-year-old Natalie Altier Srinivasan, and their children, a six-year-old girl and a two-year-old boy.

Shocked neighbors say the family showed no outward signs of conflict.

"My daughter was texting with Natalie last night about 9:00 about how they were going to get to work today, what the traffic and the flooding was going to be like," neighbor Barbara Loven says. "Everything seemed normal."

According to Fort Bend County Sheriff Troy Nehls, the investigation is still ongoing.
