A shooting that took place in a Houston suburb left six people—including four children—dead last night. 

KHOU reports that police responded to an emergency call in the Enchanted Oaks section of Spring, Texas to find three children and two adults dead in what authorities described as a domestic dispute between an estranged couple.

According to KHOU, the fourth child died after being transported to Memorial Hermann Hospital. The victims were between the ages of five and 40, and the lone survivor was a 15-year-old girl, who told police that the shooter planned to travel to another home to kill additional relatives. ABC News adds that the teenager managed to identify the shooter as 34-year-old Ron Haskell prior to being rushed to a hospital.

Haskell eventually surrendered following a three-hour standoff.
