Two adults and their 7- and 9-year-old sons were found dead along with three dogs on Sunday.
Alberto Rolon, 38, Zoraida Bartolomei, 32, and their two boys, ages 7 and 9, died in what appears to be a targeted attack, Romeoville Police Department Deputy Chief Chris Burne said in a"This incident is the police department’s top priority. All officers and professional staff have been working tirelessly on this case," Burne said."Our detectives and crime-scene investigators have spent the last 36 hours collecting a tremendous amount of physical evidence.
Mayor John Noak said the incident has shaken Romeoville, a town of about 40,000 that's 35 miles southwest of Chicago. “It is always heartbreaking whenever there is a loss of life, but when there are children involved it’s much more painful,” he said. The family was discovered dead inside their home Sunday night after a relative asked police for a “well-being check” because one of the victims did not show up for work, police said.
