Family of four found dead in car in Trinidad

Two young children, a woman and a man were found dead in a car in Toco, Trinidad on Friday 12th April in what police suspect is a case of a father slashing the throats of his wife and 11-year-old child and suffocating a baby.

He then killed himself in what appeared to be a triple murder-suicide.

Residents of Hambug Trace spotted the vehicle which was strange to the area around 1pm, parked near a mango tree.

By 3pm, when the vehicle remained in the same spot, a resident peeped in and made the horrific discovery.

Toco police observed that the man was seated in the driver’s seat, and blood covered his chest.

A child was seated in the front passenger’s seat, and a woman and a baby in the back seat all were unresponsive.
