ELKRIDGE, Md. — A man shot and killed his wife, daughter, and daughter-in-law before turning the gun on himself Thursday night in Elkridge.
The tragic incident happened inside a home in the 6900 block of Norwood Ferry around 10pm.
Howard County Police released the names of the three women Friday morning.
The gunman's wife was identified as 57-year-old Syeda Aalia Nayyar.
Her daughter is 25-year-old Syeda Fatima, and her daughter-in-law is Alizey Fatima, 33.
Police say the shooter, 61-year-old Nayyar Abbas Syed, also wounded his own son, Muhammad Ali Hamza, 31, who remains hospitalized in critical condition.
Syed's three-month-old granddaughter was found inside the home unharmed, and will be placed in the custody of a family member.
Police say all victims lived at the home, while Syed did not, but regularly visited.
Investigators are still searching for a motive, however, Syed previously called 911 reporting he'd shot his family members and planned to take his own life.
