TALLADEGA Ala. A request for the police to do a welfare check on a residence was more than anyone could expect.
Talladega police were dispatched about 3:30 p.m. Saturday to the residence on Old Shocco Road after receiving a request for a welfare check on someone who had not been heard from since Thursday.
Once at the residence, police could not get anyone to the door, but things looked and felt out of place, so officers made entry and found three men and a woman dead. All had been shot, according to the Talladega County Coroner’s Office.
Coroner Shaddix Murphy identified the men as Nicholas Keith, 44, Jeffreon Keith, 40, and Jamari Evans, 27. The Keiths were cousins.
The woman has been identified as Querida Flores. She was 30.
At this time the police do not know if this was a murder-suicide situation or if it is a quadruple homicide and the suspect is on the run.
In 2023, Talladega Alabama had less than ten homicides.
It was not immediately clear how long the victims had been dead.
