Update on Florida Killing in Port St. John
Mom kills her children, herself at Florida home
A Florida mother shot her four children early Tuesday morning before turning the gun on herself at her home in Port St. John, police said.
A neighbor heard shots at
4:50 a.m. and then responded to a knock at the door to find three of
the children.
The mother, Tanya Thomas, 33, called them back home,
Brevard County Sheriff's Office Lt. Tod Goodyear told reporters.
Deputies arrived at the house several minutes later to hear more shots fired.
They discovered Thomas's
eldest daughter, Pebbles Johnson, 17, wounded in the front yard. They
drove a patrol car onto the lawn in an attempt to rescue her. Johnson
was rushed to hospital but died from her wounds, Goodyear said.
