Four people are dead in Coweta County after what appears to be a murder-suicide, according to Coweta County Sheriff's Office.

The sheriff's office responded to a residence on Crabapple Court shortly after 1 a.m. Saturday after receiving multiple E-911 calls.

Deputies found two bodies in the driveway of the home and one body in the doorway. A male was seen running inside the residence and then a gunshot was heard, according to the sheriff's office.

Coweta County SWAT was activated and responded to the scene. The residence was secured, and a fourth body was located inside the home.

At that time, the incident was deemed a murder-suicide. CCSO's Criminal Investigation Unit began handling the investigation.

While officials said no names would be released until notification of the family had been made, neighbors weighed in on the tragedy.

"As soon as I found out about it, I was like, ‘Oh my goodness, this is so close to home because nothing has ever happened like this in this area,’" neighbor Brandi Wright said. "My prayers are with you, and we hope for the best for you and your families."
