Six Dead in Memphis House

Has anybody been following this story? I just found it not that long ago in my headlines.
The bodies of four adults and two children have been found by US police in a house in Memphis, Tennessee.
Three more children, including a 10-month-old baby, were critically injured and taken to hospital.
The victims had been shot, and at least one of the children had been stabbed, police said. All the children involved were under the age of 12, police said.
Police forced their way into the house after alerted by a relative who called round in the evening but got no answer.
They found some of the dead in the living room while others were found in bedrooms.
Police have not given many details and have not whether they think the killer is among the dead or remains at large.
“We just don’t know the motive or cause of death, but we do have four adults and two children [dead],” Memphis police Lt Jerry Guin told the Commercial Appeal newspaper. source
I’m horribly confused. It says six dead in the house and that they found three more. But in the next breath they say four adults are dead and two kids. So which is it? Which is the actual death toll? Hell, does anyone understand what exactly is going on here?!
This keeps making me think of Rob Zombie’s “House of a 1000 Corpses”. Just the way they keep uncovering more bodies, ya know? If you’ve ever heard the song, or watched the movie for that matter, you’ll get what I mean. They stumbled on this quite by accident I’m gathering, and more bodies are cropping up.
I just want to know how they knew to go to the house, that there really was something seriously wrong and not paranoid family members worrying over nothing, and what tipped the family off to begin with. They have to have their suspicions already!

I’m assuming four adults and two children are dead which would take care of the 6 dead but then there were more children at the house that were not dead? And I immediately thought of House of 1,000 Corpses when I read that! Either way, it’s sad and I can’t believe someone would want to kill innocent children never the less kill anybody period. Some people just make me sick. I’m interested to know if it was an outside job or one of the dead bodies that was found.
Yes… six dead and 3 others were found in critical condition:

There’s other articles on the web that the owner used to shoot his gun in the yard (I’m trying to NOT make a bad TN joke here)… so sad.
This one is actually more recent I think

Poor dead people
And injured people too. I feel sad for them.
