Three Members of San Diego Family Found Dead in Home

Autopsies will determine the cause of death for the three family members.

Overview

  • A neighbor who said she heard loud bangs the night before entered the San Carlos house and called 9-1-1, leading officers to the scene on Wednesday when they found the family unresponsive.
  • Police identified the adults as David and Amy Voight and said their 13-year-old daughter was also found dead; preliminary on-scene evidence indicates gunshot wounds and a firearm was recovered.
  • San Diego police said they are not seeking suspects and that there is no ongoing threat to the community while the homicide unit continues its investigation.
  • The San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office will perform autopsies to determine cause, manner and timing of death and investigators will follow up with forensics and witness interviews.
  • Family members and records describe David Voight as a long-serving, decorated Navy warrant officer who struggled with worsening PTSD but officials say those details are contextual and not a substitute for forensic findings.
