Fox News contributor Ted Williams joined 'America's Newsroom' to discuss the Orsolya Gaal murder investigation.

Five individuals and a dog were all found killed in a Duluth, Minnesota home on Wednesday morning, with little explanation.

Police found the five bodies at a home in Duluth's East Hillside. Police were out on a welfare check for an individual in a nearby neighborhood which led them to the home. Suspecting the individual was armed and dangerous, the police arrived and entered the home. All five individuals are thought to be related, according to local outlet WCCO.

"Things happened today that can’t be undone," said Duluth Mayor Emily Larson. "Tonight we are a community in pain and shock, sharing a sorrow for the loss of our people. [Duluth Police Department with] support of other jurisdictions responded to a call today where 5 people & 1 dog were found deceased."
