Family fatally stabbed in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma

Two teenage brothers have been arrested in the fatal stabbings of their parents and three siblings in a suburb of Tulsa, Oklahoma, authorities said on Thursday.

All five were found dead at their home in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, late on Wednesday by police responding to a 911 emergency call from a line with no audible message, police said.

David Bever, 52; his wife April Bever, 44; two sons aged 12 and 7; and a daughter, 5, were found dead, Broken Arrow police said.

A sixth family member survived the stabbing and was in serious condition on Thursday after surgery at a Tulsa-area hospital, according to police. A young sibling was found unharmed and placed in state custody, police said.

The suspects, the Bevers' 18- and 16-year-old sons, were tracked down by a police canine officer in a wooded area near the house and taken into custody, Broken Arrow Police Corporal Leon Calhoun said. (Reuters)
