Indian Army officer wanted for 1996 murder kills wife and children then turns gun on himself at California home

A former Indian Army officer wanted in a 1996 killing in the disputed Kashmir region killed his wife and two of their children in their home before apparently taking his own life, authorities said.

Avtar Singh, 47, of Selma, California, called police at around 6.15am on Saturday and told them that he had just killed four people, Fresno County Sheriff's Deputy Chris Curtice said.

When a sheriff's SWAT team entered the home they found the bodies of Singh, a woman believed to be his wife and two children, ages 3 and 15, Curtice said. All four appeared to have died from gunshot wounds.
