A kenyan woman identified as Mary Njoki Muchemi and her two daughters 17-year-old Andrianna Stanton, and 11-year-old Brianna Stanton have been killed by her husband 60-year-old Gary Stanton.

Police officers in Louisville Kentucky received a report of a shooting and on arrival they found four people dead.

Officers believe that Gary Stanton committed suicide after shooting his wife and daughters, terming the incident as a murder suicide.

According to the Jefferson County Coroner's Office, Mary and Andrianna were shot multiple times and Brianna was shot once. 

"We feel pretty confident that the incident is going to be a murder-suicide situation where the adult male was the primary aggressor who shot the three females, Any time lives are lost, anytime there's juveniles involved obviously it's very difficult. Many of our officers are fathers and mothers as well. It's difficult to see anything like this."

The mother of two was murdered six days after celebrating her birthday.

May their souls rest in peace.
