UPDATE: Cops say that what drove killer grandpa Don Spirit, 51, to murder his
daughter and six grandchildren remains a mystery. Spirit allegedly
called 911 saying he had "injured someone."
His daughter was identified as
Sarah Spirit, 28, according to local news reports.
Sheriff's Office named the six children Thursday:
3-month-old Alana Stewart, 4-year-old Brandon Stewart, 5-year-old
Destiny Stewart, 8-year-old Johnathon Kuhlmann, 9-year-old Kylie
Kuhlmann and 11-year-old Kaleb Kuhlmann.
According to the New York Daily News: "In 2003, the Orlando Sentinel
reported, a man named Don Spirit, then 40, pleaded guilty to being a
convicted felon in possession of a firearm after accidentally shooting
to death his 8-year-old son during a hunting trip two years earlier. The
boy, named Kyle, was shot in the head when his father's high-powered
Browning rifle went off while the dad was pointing out a rust spot. "
