Man kills his 2 children, then hangs himself

Posted

SANTA ROSA, CA (KRON/CNN) - A California man killed his two young children before he took his own life over Father's Day weekend.

Friends said that Alvaro Camara is the man that killed his two kids then hanged himself.

Those with the sheriff's office found the three bodies Monday morning, when they were doing a welfare check. 

Camara was married but had been separated for six months. 

He had the kids on Father's Day and was supposed to drop them back at their mother's home Sunday night. 

That never happened.

Police believe he killed his 18-month-old son and 6-year-old daughter. 

Neighbors noticed that he was aggravated Sunday morning after someone in his complex had parked in someone else’s spot. 

Neighbors said Alvaro had only lived there for a few months, but the arguments between him and his wife were intense on several occasions, as the two were going through a divorce.

Officers aren't saying how the kids died, only that there was no obvious sign of what caused their death. 

No signs of any trauma.
