In the morning hours, Allen Police officers arrived shortly after and somehow managed to enter the house. After invading the house, police found four dead bodies, husband, wife, and two sons.

Reports also have suggested that this family also lost a 4-year-old daughter earlier this month in a drowning incident. Their daughter was known as Lyian Sherwani. Police also confirmed the names of the victims, husband Farman Sherwani, wife Layla Sherwani, younger son Mateen Sherwani, and elder son Shaheen Sherwani.

In addition, it is also not confirmed who was the killer who committed suicide later. A funeral service for the family was announced by The Islamic Association.

Abdul Rahman Bashir, the director or imam at the mosque said, “This is definitely news that no one is ready to wake up to hear, let alone the family members, but even for the congregation members who perhaps didn’t even know them. From what my understanding is they were a close-knit family. Few siblings lived on the same street within walking distance of each other.” He further added Farman’s family was already going through a difficult situation with the tragic death of their 4-year-old daughter.
