Mom, Teen Son Kills 3 Children After Performing Weird Religious Ritual In Neighbor’s Yard

Over the weekend, authorities arrested a mother after her three children were discovered dead in her California home.

Law and Crime said officials detained Angela Flores late Sunday night after being questioned by police earlier that day.

The incident happened on the 22500 block of Victory Boulevard in the West Hills district of Los Angeles, according to the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD).

LAPD Public Information Officer Matthew Cruz said no other suspects are being sought. A 12-year-old girl and two 8-year-old boys were the victims, according to police.

The three youngsters were all pronounced deceased at the crime site. The California mother's teen son, who was reportedly involved in the triple homicide, was also arrested by the LAPD.

Police arrived at Angela Flores' home at 7:40 a.m. on Sunday after receiving complaints of an assault with a deadly weapon, according to the New York Post.

Flores' twin boys and her pre-teen daughter were found lifeless when cops arrived on the scene. The youngsters had been dead for several hours, and paramedics had no idea how they died.

According to neighbors, the family had just been in the house for roughly three months. They also stated that they frequently hear yelling and fighting, including the night before the children were discovered.

Priscilla Canales, a neighbor, told the Los Angeles Times that she heard Angela Flores crying that her family was beating her on Saturday night.

Canales observed the California mother enter the yard of her next-door neighbor, open a Bible, and light candles.

Blanca Hernandez, Flores' next-door neighbor, told CBS News that she was home when Flores began acting "erratically on her front lawn," causing her to dial 911.

If she resided in the region, she said she never saw Flores. Flores, according to Canales, kept getting up and asking where is her bible.

According to neighbor Stephen Hayes, the family appeared to be "lovely, normal people," according to neighbor Stephen Hayes, who also noted that the California mom's house "is one of the nicest-looking residences on the block."

Flores' teenage son, who is suspected of being implicated in the murders of his siblings, was reportedly apprehended after running towards a neighbor's house. He was reportedly taken to a juvenile detention center.

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, the California mother acknowledged to killing her children with the help of his 16-year-old son. Flores is being jailed on $6 million bond after being charged with three charges of murder.

According to reports, the LAPD's Juvenile Division's abused child unit is currently investigating the victims' death time and cause.
