The four victims have also been described in a Charleston Daily Mail report as being in their teens or early 20s, although authorities have not disclosed information on the women or whether they were related.

Police have also not confirmed whether the young four your old was related to any of the victims.

Leland Ashley, a Tulsa police spokesman, has said, "Our detectives are beating the bushes and so are our patrol officers and our gang units."

According to reports, investigators believe the four victims were all killed sometime around noon. An emergency 911 call was placed with police at about 12.30 p.m. local time, authorities have confirmed.

"Right now, we have no clear-cut suspect we're looking at at this point," said police spokesman Leland Ashley, according to The Associated Press.

Ashley added, "I don't want to strike fear in the community tonight, but we do have an individual or individuals who murdered four people. Do we know if there was a motive, like a jealous lover? We don't know that. We can't say if it was random or if someone knew (the victims)."

Ashley has also said that police are hopeful someone in the nearby community would come forward with more information: "We still have a lot of questions that need to be answered at this point. ... Our concern is for the small child, possibly having to witness this horrific tragedy."
