LAGRANGE - Authorities are searching for a man wanted for murder in deaths of five people whose bodies were found at a LaGrange home late Saturday night.
The Troup County Sheriff's Office was asked to conduct a welfare check at the home in the 100 block of Woodstream Trail at about 10 p.m., when the bodies were found. Initially, deputies said four bodies had been found, but indicated a fifth victim had been found a few hours later.
Inside the house were the bodies of four females and one male. The victims were identified as 69-year-old William Burtron, 68-year-old Sheila Burton, 33-year-old Christie Lee, 18-year-old Iiaonna Green and 16-year-old Bailey Burton.
According to police, four of the victims had been shot to death. One of the two women was killed in a different manner, according to Troup County Sheriff's officials.
Authorities said the people may have been dead for more than a day, based on the condition of the bodies. The GBI will conduct autopsies on the bodies on Monday.
Investigators said they were looking for the husband of one Christie Lee – Thomas Jesse Lee, 26 – who they said was staying at the home. The Troup County Sheriff's Office said Sunday afternoon that he's wanted for murder. He's described as 6-feet-3-inches tall, and weighing about 190 pounds. He was thought to be driving an olive green Mazda Tribute with Georgia tag BRN0785.
Anyone with any information is asked to call the Troup County Sheriff's Office at 706-883-1616.
