HOUSTON, Shawwal 24, 1436, August 09, 2015, SPA -- Eight people including five children and three adults were found dead inside a Texas home following the arrest of a man who exchanged gunfire with police, authorities in the U.S. state said Sunday, according to AP. Deputies were called to a home in the Houston area late Saturday to perform a welfare check, Harris County Sheriff spokesman Thomas Gilliland told KHOU-TV. Gilliland said deputies subsequently received information indicating that a man inside the home was wanted on a warrant for aggravated assault on a family member. While waiting for a High Risk Operations Unit to arrive at the scene, deputies spotted the body of a juvenile through a window, Gilliland said. Four deputies then forced their way into the home, prompting the 49-year-old male suspect inside to begin shooting. Deputies pulled back and waited for the operations unit to arrive. The man surrendered about an hour later. --SPA 15:02 LOCAL TIME 12:02 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
