Five people were killed in a shooting inside a South Carolina home over the weekend, local authorities said.
Police discovered the bodies of four people who were fatally shot inside a home on Bobo Drive in the town of Inman around 7:45 p.m. Sunday, the Spartanburg County Sheriff’s Office said.
A lone survivor was rushed to Spartanburg Regional Medical Center, where they died in surgery, according to local CBS News affiliate WSPA.
Two of the victims, 37-year-old Thomas Ellis Anderson and 32-year-old Adam Daniel Morley, lived in the home, the outlet reported, citing the county coroner.
None of the victims, who were found in different areas of the house, were related. All were adults.
Some of the victims had multiple gunshot wounds, the coroner said.
“The sheriff’s office, my office, nobody’s going to let up — not even the prosecutor’s office is not going to let up on this,” Spartanburg County Coroner Rusty Clevenger said of the quintuple shooting. “They’re all hands on deck. Everybody is really working hard on this.”
The identities of the three other victims have not been released.

It’s unclear how long the victims had been dead inside the home before they were discovered.
A neighbor told the local FOX station that she heard gunshots on Saturday, a day before the bodies were found.
“You don’t think nothing of it because you’re living in the country,” Sue Gonzalez told FOX Carolina. “But it’s scary.”
Bolden lived in the same Avenue M building in Canarsie as his alleged killer, Erickson Jean-Gilles, 32. Police charged Jean-Gilles with murder on Sept. 27.
The men got into a fight outside the Canarsie One Stop Market on Avenue L on Sept. 24.
A witness told The Post she saw two men arguing with one throwing a liquor bottle and “the other guy began to stab him. He was swift like he was a professional stabber.”
A 21-year-old Florida woman was charged with first-degree murder for allegedly stabbing her sister to death after learning she had been flirting with her boyfriend.
Fatiha Marzan reportedly killed her younger sister, 20-year-old Sayma Marzan, at 4:30 a.m. on Sept. 26 in the bedroom they shared in the family’s Orlando home, according to local reports.
Fatiha had just found out that her long-distance boyfriend of five years and her sister had been flirting with one another in messages exchanged through a video game they played together, the Orlando Sentinel reported.
She allegedly decided to kill Sayma after she learned her boyfriend had told Sayma he loved her. She purchased a “dagger style knife set” from Amazon two weeks before the stabbing, investigators said.
She hid the knives in a closet and waited until her family members went to bed before pulling out a knife and allegedly stabbing her sister in the heart three to four times in the bedroom they shared, police said.
Fatiha called 911 hours later at 7:30 p.m. and reportedly said she stabbed her sister. Deputies responded and found Sayma dead inside the home.
Fatiha confessed to stabbing Sayma three to four times, specifically in the heart, authorities said.
She is being held in Orange County Jail without bond.
The discovery of a skull in English Moors has sparked a new search for the remains of a boy murdered nearly 60 years ago.
British police were digging near Manchester in a bid to find Keith Bennett, who was just 12 when he was abducted and killed.
Keith left home on June 16, 1964 to walk to his grandmother’s home and not seen again. His body has never been found.

The skull was reported to cops Thursday by an amateur sleuth investigating the child’s killing the Guardian reported Friday.
Keith’s mother, Winnie Johnson, was often photographed not far from what could turn out to be the murder scene — if the remains are identified as Keith’s. Johnson died in 2012.
Writer Russell Edwards — who has searched for Keith’s remains for years — alerted authorities to the possible discovery, according to the outlet.

Funeral arrangements have been made for veteran FDNY EMT Alison Russo-Elling, who was stabbed to death in an unprovoked attack in Queens on Thursday.
The wake for the 61-year-old first responder will be held Monday and Tuesday at the Commack Abbey Funeral Home in Commack, according to the Long Island funeral home’s website.
Russo-Elling’s funeral service will be held at 11 a.m. on Wednesday at the Tilles Center, located at 720 Northern Boulevard in Brookville on the LIU Post campus. She will then be cremated in a private ceremony.
The 25-year FDNY veteran and 9/11 responder was on duty and had walked a half block from her unit to get something to eat when she was stabbed nearly 20 times near 20th Avenue and 41st Street in Astoria around 2:20 p.m. Thursday.
Suspect Peter Zisopoulos, 34, was shortly after the horrific attack after barricading himself inside his nearby apartment, cops said.

He was charged Friday with murder and weapons possession.
According to police sources and disturbing video of the incident, Zisopoulos allegedly slammed Russo-Elling to the ground, mounted her and then repeatedly stabbed her.
A witness who’d been driving by on a scooter confronted the brute, but he snarled, “F–k you, f–k you!” before stepping away from the victim and charging at the man while still holding the bloodied knife, police sources said.
Zisopoulos fled the scene, leaving Russo-Elling unresponsive on the ground, according to sources and the video.

Russo-Elling, described by her union as “the sweetest, kindest person you’ve ever met,” was only six or seven months away from retirement, Vincent Variale, president of Local 3621, told reporters outside the hospital where the paramedic succumbed to her injuries.
She joined the FDNY as an EMT in March 1998 and was promoted to a paramedic in 2002 before becoming a lieutenant in 2016.
New Boston, Texas — A state police investigator testified Tuesday that a woman accused of killing a pregnant woman and removing her unborn child conducted intensive research on how to fake a pregnancy convincingly.
Special Agent Dustin Estes of the Texas Department of Public Safety testified that Parker viewed numerous YouTube videos on delivering and caring for babies.
On the day of the killing, she watched a video on the physical exam of an infant delivered pre-term at 35 weeks, he said. Simmons-Hancock had a 35-week pregnancy when she was killed.
Parker also ran numerous Google searches about pregnancy, Estes said.
“She watched all these videos, clicked on all these links, and they were all at 35 weeks,” prosecutor Kelley Crisp said.
“My opinion is Taylor Parker faked her pregnancy. … She planned and carried out the murder of Reagan,” Estes said.
Parker’s attorney, Jeff Harrelson, challenged that opinion, telling Estes, “You can see somebody looked them up, but you don’t know why. You can have a theory.”
Parker, 29, has pleaded not guilty to capital murder and kidnapping in the October 2020 deaths of Simmons-Hancock, 21, and the daughter who died after being cut from her mother’s womb. Authorities say Simmons-Hancock was stabbed and cut more than 100 times and had her skull crushed with a hammer in her New Boston, Texas, home before a scalpel was used to remove her unborn baby. She is also charged with non-capital murder in connection with the baby’s death.
In her opening statement Monday, Crisp told the Bowie County jury that Parker acted not because she wanted a baby but to keep from losing her boyfriend. Crisp said Parker disguised herself to make her look pregnant for nearly 10 months, faked ultrasounds, had a gender-reveal party and posted about her fake pregnancy on social media while searching for a possible victim, Crisp said.
A suspect accused of possessing child pornography who is tied to the 2017 murders of two teenage girls in Delphi, Indiana, has been soliciting sexual favors from women who write him in prison, according to two podcast hosts.
“In addition to wanting money, women have been contacting him, and he is trying to exploit them sexually in order to give them information about the case,” podcast host and attorney Kevin Greenlee told Fox News Digital. “There was a particularly striking exchange where a … young woman was asking about the case and talking about church, and he responded very quickly by turning it into a sexual conversation.”
Kegan Kline, 27, is currently in custody in Miami County, Indiana, for 30 counts of child pornography-related charges dating back to 2016 and 2017. He was linked to the Delphi murders after he was reportedly in contact with one of the victims, 14-year-old Libby German, the night before she was murdered, according to FOX 59 Indianapolis.
German and Abigail Williams, 13, were found murdered on the morning of Feb. 13, 2017, after German’s sister dropped the pair off at the entrance of a hiking trail the day prior.
Kline allegedly made plans to meet up with German at the bridge where her body was found the next day, but he denies that he had anything to do with the girls’ killings and has not been charged in connection to the Delphi case.

Greenlee and journalist Áine Cain who host “The Murder Sheet” podcast and have been following the Delphi murder case, were recently in contact with Kline via a messaging platform that Kline can use to communicate with others outside prison.
One woman who wrote to Kline told the podcast hosts that the suspect offered to give her information if she allowed him to masturbate in front of her via FaceTime. He also reportedly attempted to get the adult women who have contacted him in prison to perform sexual favors in exchange for information, which Greenlee noted in the latest episode of “The Murder Sheet” podcast is particularly disturbing given the crimes Kline is accused of.
In addition, Kline repeatedly told Cain and Greenlee that he would not divulge any information without payment, which the podcast hosts declined to do as journalists.
“Don’t message me again. You have put out so much bulls*t against me. I get you have a podcast and want money from this, but it’s wrong what you’re doing, Aine,” Kline said in one message to Cain that she and Greenlee discussed in their latest podcast episode.
“There is a lot of misinformation. People doing interviews that don’t even know me, Aine, and lying all about me. I’m very upset about it. I’m having a hard enough time,” another message from Kline read.
“How many questions are you wanting to ask? I’ll answer some, but not for free. Everyone is making money off my name, and I’m sitting in here hungry with nothing,” Kline said in another message, which does not support what sources have told the podcast hosts about Kline gaining a significant amount of weight in prison.
The podcast hosts have reported extensively on the Delphi murders and Kline, and they wanted to reach out to the suspect to give him a chance to share his side of the story. When Cain and Greenlee asked Kline what they got wrong in their reporting, he evaded the question and said he would only provide answers in exchange for $400.

“I would characterize our conversation with Kegan Kline as pretty brief,” Cain explained. “… He expressed disapproval of some of our reporting on him. We asked him for clarification. He didn’t provide it. The main thing that we took out of it was that he wants to charge people money to interview him about the Delphi case.”
Indiana court documents obtained by Cain and Greenlee in May and August also indicate possible developments in the case involving Kline.
Cain and Greenlee recently received an anonymous tip that led them to the Wabash River in Peru, Indiana, — not far from Kline’s home that was raided in 2017 after the Delphi murders — on Aug. 23, where they witnessed and photographed authorities searching the water with various tools.
On Aug. 19, the Indiana State Police petitioned the Miami County Circuit Court for custody of Kline, though he currently remains in Miami County.
In March, Cain and Greenlee obtained a 2020 transcript of an ISP interview with Kline that was accidentally posted online.
According to the transcript, which has since been sealed in the court record, Kline told police he communicated with German on the day she was killed. The transcript also revealed that Kline searched “How long does DNA last” on his computer and failed a police polygraph.
In December 2021, ISP said in a Facebook post that it had uncovered a fictitious Instagram account under the username “Anthony_Shots” during its investigation into the murders. The transcript indicates that Kline had access to the account, which had been in contact with German. Kline told investigators, however, that he gave the account password to “a lot of people,” according to the document.
“This profile was being used from 2016 to 2017 on social media applications, including but not limited to, Snapchat and Instagram,” Indiana police said in the Facebook post. “The fictitious anthony_shots profile used images of a known male model and portrayed himself as being extremely wealthy and owning numerous sports cars. The creator of the fictitious profile used this information while communicating with juvenile females to solicit nude images, obtain their addresses, and attempt to meet them. Pictured below, you’ll see images of the known male model and images the fictitious anthony_shots profile sent to underage females.”
Police say German used her cellphone to snap images of a man walking across the railroad bridge shortly before she and Williams were killed on Feb. 13, 2017. German also recorded the man believed to be the killer ordering the friends “down the hill.”
Authorities are asking anyone who may know something about the Instagram profile or anything about the case to contact law enforcement at abbyandlibbytip@cacoshrf.com or 765-822-3535.
Lawyers for the Texas yoga teacher accused of murdering a romantic rival say evidence in the case against her should be tossed because she was not read her rights when she was first questioned by police.
Kaitlin Armstrong was interrogated and released by Austin police on May 12, a day after her Jeep was seen at the home where professional cyclist Mariah “Mo” Wilson, 25, was found shot to death.
Armstrong then went on the lam for 43 days before being arrested in Costa Rica, where she was recovering from cosmetic surgery.
The 34-year-old murder suspect asked to leave her May interrogation five times before her request was granted by a cop who believed her arrest warrant was invalid because the document and the department’s system had differing date of birth’s for the murder suspect, authorities told Fox News.

In a motion for an evidentiary hearing filed Wednesday, defense lawyer Rick Cofer argued that cops also never read Armstrong her Miranda rights. As a result, the lawyer said prosecutors must suppress evidence improperly gathered against his client, the Austin American-Statesman reported.
Cofer’s motion reportedly includes a transcribed interview with Armstrong’s boyfriend Colin Strickland, 35, where he told detectives that his girlfriend was unhappy about a fling he had with Wilson when he was separated from Armstrong.
“Kaitlin did call her and pretty much just said, ‘Hey, do you know that I pretty much live at Colin’s house’ — or I don’t know exactly what was … I didn’t really dive in,” the interview transcript from Strickland reportedly said. “But I do know she called her, and Mo was like, ‘That was really weird.’”

On May 14, a tipster told police that Armstrong told them she was so angry about Wilson’s fling with Strickland that she wanted to kill her, authorities said. Cofer claims that police never determined that the caller was credible.
“The caller’s connection to or involvement in the killing of Ms. Wilson is currently unknown,” the lawyer wrote in the motion, according to the newspaper.
He also reportedly claimed that “the affidavit completely mischaracterized and falsely stated Mr. Strickland’s words to fabricate a theory of jealousy as a presumed motive for the murder,” adding that the boyfriend told police directly he didn’t think Armstrong was the killer.
“Do I think Kaitlin could kill somebody? No, I don’t,” a transcript from an interview with Strickland reportedly read. She never mentioned wanting to physically hurt Mo. … I don’t believe in any way she’s capable of that.”
After being released by police, Armstrong flew to New York City and fled upstate before using a fake passport to fly from Newark to Costa Rica, where she stayed at hostels and taught yoga classes before her arrest nearly six weeks later.
When Armstrong was picked up by US Marshalls in Santa Teresa Beach she had a bandage over her nose and bruises on her eyes, and was in possession of a $6,350 receipt for cosmetic surgery, according to sources and witnesses.
Police said she had shot Wilson dead after following Strickland when he had snuck off to see her. The murder weapon was a gun Strickland had bought for Armstrong to use, he told officials.
Armstrong had been shooting the gun at a range before the murder and had access to nearly a half million dollars before she fled Austin, police said.
She has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder charges.
