CROSBY, Texas (KTRK) -- Three teens are dead in what Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez is calling a double-homicide-suicide in a Crosby home.

Authorities were called out to the 4500 block of Wolcik Road on Tuesday afternoon after a family member found the deceased bodies of the three teens in a farm-style home. Gonzalez said the bodies were found to have signs of trauma.

Investigators said evidence at the scene led them to believe one firearm was used in all three deaths.
