Update, 7:20 p.m. Tuesday

Police said Tuesday the four victims of the man who surrendered to Mount Shasta police Monday were his family members, and it appears he killed them "over a few days' time span."

Roseville police Capt. Josh Simon would not say whether the four victims were immediate family members or distant relatives.

Two of the victims were minors and two were adults, but Simon did not provide the victims' ages. Three of the suspect's victims were found at an apartment in the 1800 block of Junction Boulevard in Roseville.

The suspect has been identified as Shankar Nagappa Hangud, a 53-year-old Roseville resident.

Police said Tuesday that Hangud appears to have killed the victims over a few days, but they're working to determine exactly when each died.

Police haven't released a motive.

Hangud drove to the Mount Shasta Police Department and told officers there he had killed the four people and one of them, an adult male, was in his car parked outside, officials have said.

He's been arrested on suspicion of murder. He was booked into the Placer County Jail and will be prosecuted in that county.

Simon said he could not remember a homicide of this magnitude in the city of Roseville.

"Nothing comes to my mind, that I can think back and remember anything of this magnitude happening in the city of Roseville," Simon said.

He did not say how the four people were killed, but said it wasn't likely they were shot.

"I don't have any knowledge that there were any firearms located at any of the crime scenes," Simon said. He said the vehicle Hangud was driving and the apartment in Roseville were two separate crime scenes.

Police say Hangud and the male victim from the car, a man of Indian ancestry, left Roseville together and stopped at unknown places in Northern California sometime in the last week before coming to Mount Shasta.

If anyone thinks they saw the men or know anything else about the incident, they're asked to call the Roseville Police Department at 916-746-1059.
