Six family members were dead in apparent murder-suicide in suburban Dallas after two brothers made a suicide pact that included the deaths of the other relatives, police said.
Allen police discovered the deaths after a concerned friend called police around 1 a.m. Monday worried that a person was suicidal, police Sgt. Jon Felty said.
“The two brothers had entered into an agreement that they were going to complete suicide, and from that, it went to where the entire family was taken with them,” Felty said.
One of the brothers described in an Instagram post what occurred or would occur, Felty said.
One brother was 19 and the other was in his 20s, he said. The victims included a grandparent, two parents and a sister, he said.
Police identified the dead Monday as 54-year-old father Towhidul Islam; 56-year-old mother Iren Islam; 77-year-old grandmother Altafun Nessa; 21-year-old Tanvir Towhid; and 19-year-old twins Farbin Towhid and her brother Farhan Towhid, according to NBC Dallas-Fort Worth.
