Cleveland Man Sought in Killing of 5 Found Dead

Cleveland (AP) -- Authorities say a Cleveland man suspected of killing his newlywed wife, his sister-in-law and three young children has killed himself as police prepared to arrest him.

Across the street, several dozen people lined up behind yellow police tape and cheered as a sheet covered stretcher was removed from the house where ex-convict Davon Crawford shot himself in the head.

A relative said the Crawfords had recently married. A 2-month-old baby found unharmed at the murder scene is believed to belong to the couple.

Police say it appears that some sort of domestic argument sparked yesterday's shootings.
