Ohio attorney general: 8 family members killed, shooter believed to be at large

All eight people were from the same family, Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine and Pike County Sheriff Charles Reader said at a joint news conference in Piketon, Ohio, on Friday afternoon. Three children survived the attack, including a 4-day-old, 6-month-old and 3-year-old. Ref. USAToday.
