HOUSTON (AP) – The latest on eight people found dead inside a Houston home (all times CDT):

Neighbors of a family fatally shot in their Houston home say they knew about problems in the household, including a history of prior police visits and a lack of supervision of children.

Eight people were killed at the home, including six children.

Carlos Sanchez lived across the street from the family. Sanchez said Monday police had visited the home several times before and neighbors were aware of a history of domestic violence between the accused killer, David Conley, and the mother of the children, Valerie Jackson.
