The victims' identities haven't been released, and the boy's motive and connection to the five victims weren't immediately unknown. Bernalillo County sheriff's spokesman Aaron Williamson said investigators were trying to determine if the victims were related.

Investigators also were seeking to determine who owned several guns that were found at the home, one of which was a semi-automatic military-style rifle.

Why not five murders?
 
at first blush it is looking to me as if the teen assailant murdered his family. Very sad, wondering what triggered the annihilation of this poor family.
 
i also assume this will be a case of a domestic crime and the country will focus on gun control solely (valid) but overlook mental health as the actual "cause"

not trying to cause a debate on gun control. I'm neither wildly pro or con. just discouraged that mental health still seems to be pushed to the side.
 
Griego and his wife, Sarah, have 10 kids, according to the pastor’s biography on the Calvary Church website, which has been removed. The other children’s ages were not given in the biography.

The suspect, NG, 15, was not well known among those living within a block or so of the family’s home on Long Lane in the South Valley.
