California authorities are looking for at least two suspects responsible for the horrific massacre" of six people, including a 10-month-old baby found in the arms of his 16-year-old mother, in what the sheriff described as a targeted attack.

The killings, the victims of which were all immediate family, took place in and around a home in Goshen, in California's main agricultural valley, in the early morning hours on Monday. The Tulare county sheriff, Mike Boudreaux, linked the violence to the illegal drug trade, saying deputies had conducted a drug-related search warrant at the same home last week and that the family was targeted: We believe this was a message being sent."
