4 dead, including 6-day-old girl and 2-year-old boy, in North Hills murder-suicide

Two adults and two young children, one of whom was only 6 days old, were found dead after a murder-suicide in North Hills on Wednesday night, authorities said.

Los Angeles Police Department officers were called to a home in the 16200 block of Londelius Avenue around 8 p.m. in response to a shooting. When they arrived, they found four people dead from gunshot wounds.

The deceased were later identified by the L.A. County medical examiner's office as Ella Basmajian, who was only six days old, 2-year-old Alec Basmajian, 31-year-old Khajag Basmajian, and a woman in her 30s whose name was not immediately released, pending the notification of her family.

Evidence initially gathered at the crime scene suggested it was the mother who shot the man and two children before dying by suicide, according to law enforcement sources.
