The victims were a 52-year-old woman, her three grandchildren – ages 5, 6 and 10 – and a 32-year-old man who was the uncle of one of the grandchildren, according to the Toledo Blade newspaper.
Emergency responders found the grandmother, uncle, three children, two dogs and a cat in a Honda Civic in the grandmother's garage. A Dodge truck in the garage had pumped exhaust -- carbon monoxide -- into the Civic.

The children's grandfather called police shortly after 3 p.m. asking for a wellness check. Firefighters ultimately had to break into the garage.
Toledo Police Sgt. Joe Heffernan said the grandmother and her daughter were involved in a custody battle over the children. The grandmother had been their primary caregiver over the last four years and the mother was in the process of regaining custody.
Authorities did not say whether a carbon monoxide detector was in the home, NBC 24 in Toledo reported.

Why? Because if it bleeds it leads.

Heh
Public Announcement...
I have a carbon monoxide detector in my house so if I die in my Dodge truck of carbon monoxide poisoning the world won't have to ask that riveting question. You can just blame it on that dang evil Civic that lives at the end of my street.

What drives people to such desperate lengths as to gather up their kin and their pets and find a way to kill self and them all ?
Or what would make someone of their kin murder a whole family ????
Still after 20+ years trying to sort out in my mind an event that took place up here. Big brother of my first boyfriend at 10 years old left town 30 years later while I was out of State. He went to Texas and married a Mexican woman. They had two sons.
At about the same time we both returned home, he with his boys. His family a good one allowed him to live at their summer cottage knowing he was wanted for kidnap. All the cops were looking for him all over the country. What ever story he told was good enough for the family to send in supplies to him and the kids.
Two little boys took a walk one day with their Daddy, Daddy shoots each of his boys in the head. I never got over this, the WHY will never go away. ---Gives new meaning to trust. :panic: :panic: :panic:

So, they decided to commit murder/suicide by using exhaust in a confined space, and people actually care about whether or not there was a carbon monoxide detector in the house? People are idiots. :whatever:
