Quintuple homicide investigation under way near Forest Grove

Five people were found dead at a secluded Forest Grove property on Northwest Otis Lane, with investigators treating the incident as a quintuple homicide after a car fire and suspicious circumstances prompted the initial response. Authorities say the deaths are not believed to be random, and no suspects are in custody as the scene is described as deeply complex by Sheriff Caprice Massey, who vowed to dedicate all available resources to the investigation. In addition to the human victims, multiple domesticated animals were also found deceased, though officials have not disclosed details about the animals. The investigation began when Forest Grove Fire & Rescue responded to a vehicle fire early Saturday, leading to the discovery of human remains, and detectives from multiple agencies have since been involved. The address is 47350 NW Otis Lane, and investigators are asking for information from the community about the residents or their associates to help solve the case. The case remains active as authorities continue to piece together how the car fire connects to the deaths and to determine what happened at the property.
