More than a year after finding her father and sister shot to death
in their apartment, a 14-year-old girl discovered her mother fatally
shot behind the wheel of her car in an attack that appeared to be
connected to the earlier killings, police said Monday.
Karine Hakobyan, 38, a nursing assistant at Childrens Hospital, was
found Friday behind the wheel of her Honda CRV with a gunshot wound
to the back of her head.
Detectives investigating the killing of her husband Khachik Safaryan,
43, and their 9-year-old daughter Lucine said there appeared to be
a link between the crimes.
"We're working on a theory that was developed in the previous
homicides," police Detective Dan Myers said. He cautioned, however,
that investigators had yet to uncover definitive evidence connecting
the deaths.
He did not provide further details but said none of the victims had
any criminal associations.
In both cases, the bodies were discovered by another daughter in the
family, Myers said, WDAM TV reports.
