The AP reports: LA Man Upset Over Job Kills Wife, 5 Kids, Himself.
A man fatally shot his wife, five young children and himself Tuesday after he faxed a note to a TV station claiming the couple had just been fired from their hospital jobs and together planned the killings as an escape for the whole family.
''Why leave our children in someone else's hands,'' Ervin Lupoe wrote in a letter posted late Tuesday on the KABC-TV Web site.
The station called police after receiving the fax, and a police dispatch center also received a call from a man who stated, ''I just returned home and my whole family's been shot.''
It was the fifth mass death of a Southern California family by murder or suicide in a year. Police urged those facing tough economic times to get help rather than resort to violence.
Aah, the joys of being a home-pawner! Enjoy them while you're alive!
