In a tragic incident, an Indian couple and their six-year-old child were found dead in their home in Maryland, USA. The victims, identified as Yogesh H. Nagarajappa, Prathiba Y. Amarnath, and Yash Honnal, were originally from Karnataka, India. The police responded to a welfare check and discovered that all three had suffered from gunshot wounds.

According to the Baltimore County Police spokesperson, Anthony Shelton, the initial investigation suggests that the incident is a case of double murder-suicide committed by Nagarajappa. The family members were last seen alive on Tuesday evening, and an autopsy will be conducted to determine the cause and manner of death.

The police have found an apparent death note but have not confirmed its connection to the case. The shocking news has deeply saddened the community, and Baltimore County Executive Johnny Olszewski expressed his condolences to the victims' family and promised to provide support during this difficult time.

The authorities have assured that there is no threat to the surrounding communities. The victims' family in India, particularly Yogesh's mother Shobha, is desperate to bring their bodies back to India. Shobha said that her son had called her recently and gave no indication of any problems.

She appealed to the Indian government to assist in repatriating the remains. This heartbreaking incident serves as a reminder of the importance of mental health awareness and support.
