Around 9:00 a.m. on Christmas Eve, the Baxter County Sheriff's Deputies responded to a 911 call reporting that a woman was seen lying on the floor inside her house.
Police responded to 124 Forest Hills Dr., which is in the Robinson Point area of Lake Norfork, East of Mountain Home. Sheriff's Deputies and an officer with the Arkansas State Police arrived at the residence at approximately 9:11 a.m. to investigate.
After forcing their way in, police discovered the bodies of 52-year-old Harry D. Svensson, 56-year-old Louise Scensson and 20-year-old Victor Robles. Each had suffered gunshot wounds. The preliminary investigation determined that the three persons were a man and his wife, who lived at the residence, as well as her son, who was visiting from out of state.
Sheriff's Investigators from the Criminal Investigation Division and the Baxter County Coroner's Office were called to the residence. The evidence at the scene suggests that the husband shot and killed his wife and her son, then shot and killed himself. However, no conclusions have been reached and the investigation is still ongoing.
A handgun was found at the scene and taken into evidence, as well spent shell casings and other items of evidentiary value.
The bodies have been transferred to the custody of the State Medical Examiner's Office for transport to Little Rock for autopsy. The results of the autopsies will not be known for several days.
