Ala. police: Father kills 3 kids, self*
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — A man fatally shot his three children and took
his own life as law officers searched for him on a domestic violence
claim made by his wife, police said.
Eric Robinson, 42, was found dead Sunday night in the house where his
wife lived with the children, Lt. Keith Barnett said. Robinson, who
lived at a different home, fatally shot the children, a 4-year-old girl
and boys 6 and 11, Barnett said.
The three were found in his car outside his wife's house.
The police spokesman said there had been an "ongoing domestic violence
relationship" and officers had been looking for Robinson after his wife
signed a warrant Sunday afternoon accusing him of violating a protective
order.
The children were with Robinson for a normal visitation when his wife
sought help and police began looking for him, Barnett said.
It was not clear where the wife was at the time of the shootings.
