Teen kills family and friends in farmhouse massacre

AN 18-year-old who was about to graduate from high school is believed to have fatally shot his grandparents, mother and two family friends before killing himself, Ohio authorities said yesterday.

Logan County Sheriff Michael Henry said he was unsure if authorities would ever find out why Scott Moody committed the shootings in the town of Bellefontaine early Sunday morning.

The rampage at neighbouring farmhouses came hours after a party to celebrate the pending graduation. Moody’s younger sister was wounded and was in critical condition yesterday.
