It was Mr. Logan’s wife who called 911. She stated that “Daniel killed everyone.” On the day of the attacks, she was woken up by the sound of a door.

She discovered that her husband was no longer in the apartment. The woman then went out the back before seeing that the neighbors’ glass door had been smashed.

Then she heard her mother-in-law and Jeremy’s mother screaming in the house next door.

Then Daniel Logan’s mother came out covered in blood. She screamed for help.

The police do not know the motive for the attack. According to them, it could be a “random attack”.

A GoFundMe crowdfunding campaign has been launched for Jeremy and his parents. More than $200,000 was raised for his medical care.
