911 audio reveals panicked daughter who survived Ohio dad shooting 3 sons
An Ohio woman told dispatchers a little girl approached her claiming her father was "killing everybody in her family." Chad Doerman has been charged with 3 counts of aggravated murder and accused of wounding the boys’ mother at the family’s home.
Minutes before deputies arrived to find an Ohio dad sitting in his yard next to a rifle with his three sons dead on the grass, a neighbor told dispatchers a girl approached her claiming her father was "killing everybody in her family," newly released 911 audio reveals.
"She said that her stepfather is killing everybody in her house," the woman told the dispatcher, explaining she found the girl running down the road calling for help. "I asked her to get in the car with me, and she said she couldn't leave her family."
She described the survivor as a teenage girl with blonde hair. The victims were three boys, ages 3, 4 and 7.
In a second call, a man across the street said he saw at least two children shot in broad daylight.

Although he ignored commands from responding deputies, they placed him in handcuffs without further violence.
In previously released bodycam video, black bars obscured the screen where the boys' bodies are laying on the grass. Immediately after Doerman was in cuffs, deputies attempted to render aid.

At his arraignment Friday, prosecutors alleged that he confessed to lining his sons up in the yard and gunning them down.
"This is by far the most sickening, horrifying crime I have seen," Clermont County Prosecutor Mark Tekulve said, according to the Cincinnati-based WKRC-TV. "I can only imagine the terror these little boys felt and experienced as their father – their protector – was murdering them."
He is due back in court on June 26.
