The bodies of four adults and two children have been found by US police in a house in Memphis, Tennessee.
Three more children, including a 10-month-old baby, were critically injured and taken to hospital.
The victims had been shot, and at least one of the children had been stabbed, police said. All the children involved were under the age of 12, police said.
Police forced their way into the house after alerted by a relative who called round in the evening but got no answer.
