GRAND BAY, Ala. (AP) – Authorities in Alabama said an investigation into elder abuse at a veterans group home was still ongoing, as deputies attempted to piece together how the home came into existence.

The Mobile County Sheriff’s Office seized hundreds of paper records from Square One Life Management LLC after owners Donny and Tilena Owens were arrested last week, WALA-TV reported.

Capt. Paul Burch said authorities were investigating how the six men arrived at the home and what happened during their time there.

Donny and Tilena Owens were charged May 26 with one count of first-degree elder abuse and neglect, and five counts of second-degree elder abuse and neglect.

One of the residents left the home and called for help, news outlets reported.
