Oklahoma Family Massacre: 10-Year-Old Boy Sole Survivor
A 10-year-old Oklahoma boy woke up on Monday morning to discover the horrific reality that his entire family had been killed in their own home. Police responding to the scene found the bodies of the boy’s parents and three siblings, all of whom had been shot to death. The boy, who has not been identified, was the sole survivor of the tragedy.
Investigators believe that the boy’s father, Jonathan Candy, fatally shot the boy’s mother after an argument. Candy then turned the gun on the boy’s three brothers, aged 12 to 18, before shooting himself. The motive behind the massacre remains unclear, as the Candy family had no history of domestic abuse allegations.
The surviving boy, the youngest of the four brothers, was unharmed and is currently in the custody of child protective services. Police are working to determine why the boy was spared from the carnage that claimed the lives of his family members.
The Oklahoma City Police Department has expressed its condolences to the surviving boy and condemned the senseless violence. The community is reeling from the tragedy, and support is pouring in for the young victim.
This horrific incident serves as a tragic reminder of the devastating consequences of domestic violence and the importance of seeking help if you or someone you know is in danger.
