Police responding
to reports of shots fired early Saturday evening at the complex
in Bastrop, Texas, found an adult male, two women and a child
all dead of gunshot wounds, Detective Vicky Steffanic told
reporters.
Another child sustained non-life threatening wounds.
Authorities said the shooter was among the dead, but provided no
details about the circumstances.
The victims' identities were not released and no information was
available on their relationship to one another.
The Bastrop County Sheriff's office and the Texas Rangers were
investigating, Steffanic said.
Bastrop is a city of about 7,500 people about 30 miles southeast
of Austin.
