Police called it a murder-suicide committed by the child's grandfather, Richard Boyd Burton, 52, who also was found dead at the scene. Crystal Burton died at 8:45 p.m. Tuesday, May 1.

Neighbors reported hearing gunshots at about 4:30 a.m. the morning of May 1, but police searched the area and could not find the source. That evening, about 9:30 p.m., a neighbor who shares a balcony with the family saw one of the victims through the window, apparently injured. This neighbor and another broke down the front door of the family's unit and found the bodies.
