Teen arrested after 4 family members found dead at SC home

Authorities have arrested an 18-year-old man and charged him murdering his parents and two siblings at their home in Easley,...

EASLEY, SC (AP) -- A South Carolina teen is charged with gunning down his father, stepmother and two siblings at the home they shared.

Eighteen-year-old Nathaniel Dickson was arrested last night about 20 miles from the home in the town of Easley where the bodies of his family members were found.

A 911 call yesterday morning led paramedics to find the father dead in the yard. They found the other three victims inside the home.

The youngest victim was Dickson's 14-year-old brother. He was apparently trying to hide behind a clothes dryer when he was shot.

Dickson faces four counts of murder. Investigators haven't determined a motive for the killings.

A neighbor says Dickson moved out of the home after graduating from high school last year, but recently moved back in.
