BALDWIN PARK (CNS) - A 23-year-old man was arrested in connection with the fatal stabbings of three of his relatives -- a man and two women -- in Baldwin Park, authorities said Friday.

Baldwin Park Police Department officers responded at 6:48 p.m. Thursday to the 4700 block of Bogart Avenue, between Maine and Phelan avenues, where they found the victims, according to Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department Lt. Michael Modica.

The victims suffered multiple stab wounds and were pronounced dead at the scene, according to several reports.

Modica said that when officers arrived, a person tried to drive away from the scene but was detained.

That 23-year-old man was determined to be related to the victims and a resident of the home, Modica said. He was arrested and booked at the Baldwin Park Police Department on suspicion of murder.

The case will be presented to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office for charging, he said.

The victims' names were not released. "Out of respect for the family of the victims, the exact
relationships will not be released at this time," Modica said.

A neighbor told KNX radio that a cousin with whom he lives heard noises coming from the house at about 6:30 p.m.

"She heard a loud noise, someone yelling for help [and] to call 911," the neighbor said. "And then she heard a guy scream, like, just to the top of the lungs and after that she all she heard was just a loud crash. Like [a] boom, like someone slammed the door really, really hard."

Anyone with information about this case was asked to contact the Sheriff's Homicide Bureau at 323-890-5500. Those who wish to remain anonymous may call Crime Stoppers at 800-222-8477 or send tips to lacrimestoppers.org.

Sheriff's Homicide Bureau investigators will be assisting Baldwin Park Police Department detectives with the shooting investigation.
