The bodies of the murdered were found by two aunts who came to the home to enquire why they had not heard from their relatives, who found the boy home alone. According to reports he confessed to them and showed them where he had put the bodies, in a back shed so he could be in the house alone.

The police were called who cordoned off the area and arrested the minor and too possession of the shotgun.
