Steven Dym reportedly gunned down his wife and daughter with a 12-gauge shotgun before killing himself, the New York Post reported.

State Police Investigator Joseph Becerra said police were ready to identify how all three were killed, reports said. 

Steven Dym was the head of Gabriel Management in Queens, a company started by his father. The couple’s daughter was set to attend her senior year at Sacred Heart Greenwich in Connecticut.

The family also has a 20-year-old son, William, who was away at the University of Southern California at the time of the murders.

Investigators were at the scene collecting evidence and interviewing neighbors and relatives after the murders, according to Becerra.

This wasn’t the first instance of violence in the family, however. 

In 1992, Dym’s mother attacked her husband Lawrence Dym with a hatchet handle in his bed as he slept in the same house, USA Today reported.

Lawrence Dym survived, and his wife, who was reportedly under stress at the time for a medical condition, was hospitalized for a psychiatric evaluation, according to reports.
