OKLAHOMA CITY − Police say they've begun investigating after five people, including children, were found dead inside an Oklahoma City home Monday morning.

Around 9:35 a.m. Monday morning, police were notified of five deceased people inside a residence near Yukon, roughly 20 miles west of downtown Oklahoma City. At least two of the deceased people were children, said Master Sgt. Gary Knight with the Oklahoma City Police Department.

All five had injuries consistent with homicide, Knight said.

"This is not a carbon monoxide or fentanyl deal," Knight said. "These people died violently."

Police wouldn't comment further on manner of death.

Police detectives were working on obtaining a warrant to go inside the home, when crime scene investigators will process the scene, Knight said.

This is a developing story.
