Well it could be that nearby cameras show that everyone made it out of the home

"they were responding to a call of a man inside armed with a knife and the smell of gas." Are we not doing phrasing anymore?

I, too, am always armed with the smell of gas! ... Maybe not the same kind of gas as in the article, but it's enough to make the wife and kids scramble for the exits!

Disgusting wording. Domestic violence is not a “dispute” like a disagreement between multiple parties, it’s terrorism perpetrated by one person against his family.

I hate the watered down language used in reporting and discussing the terror of domestic violence--overwhelmingly a crime committed by men against women and their families.

fun fact,* a LOT of mass shooters have a known history of violence against women, including domestic violence against a partner or former partner. It's one of the most common traits observed in those who decide to go out and shoot up a bunch of people *not actually fun
