4 Found Fatally Shot Inside Rancho Cordova Home, Including 2 Children

Four shot dead inside a home after 911 calls reporting gunfire and booby traps; no traps found and motive remains under investigation, including possible murder-suicide.

  • On Tuesday, deputies responded around 8:30 a.m. to the 5400 block of Mill Water Circle in Rancho Cordova, finding four victims shot to death.
  • A 911 caller on Copper Sunset Way reported hearing gunshots, and shortly afterward a second caller claimed he fired the shots and was placing booby traps Tuesday.
  • Detective Ámbar Vicente said investigators found the resident had firearms registered in his name, including military-style weapons, and a history of military service.
  • Authorities said they are not searching for any additional people and have not yet determined whether the case involves a murder‑suicide; investigators have not identified the victims, and deputies could not confirm the man found dead was the caller, while scanner traffic showed evacuated neighboring homes.
  • Multiple deputies were on the way to investigate the scene in Rancho Cordova as law enforcement response continued, and local outlets urged, 'Stay with KCRA 3 for the latest' while the investigation remained active.
