Four Family Members Found Dead In Maryland Hotel
"Is it a homicide of all of them? Is it a homicide-suicide. Is it a joint suicide? We just don't know," Baltimore Police Corporal Mike Hill said Monday night.
The Sheraton hotel, located just off the Baltimore Beltway near both Towson and Goucher Colleges, often serves as a stayover spot for parents and alumni from both schools. Guests staying on the 10th floor, where the bodies were found, were given the option of moving to other rooms in the hotel. Some opted to check out of the hotel altogether.
"We're here to visit Goucher College with my daughter. We're going to another place to stay tonight," one hotel guest said.
Crime scene investigators spent hours examining the hotel room for evidence, while detectives canvassed the 10th floor to see if any other guests had heard or noticed anything unusual.
Police confirmed Monday night that all four people found dead in a Baltimore County hotel room are relatives. Housekeepers at the Sheraton Baltimore North Hotel in Towson made the gruesome discovery Monday afternoon.
They went to check on guests who had not checked out.

Investigators say the victims include a teenaged girl, two women, and a man . None have been identified. The family members are not from the Washington or Baltimore area. Just before 7 p.m. Monday night, crews towed a silver Mercedes SUV with New York license plates from the hotel parking garage. That tow truck was accompanied by a police escort.
Now police must determine how the four relatives were killed, and why.
