LINCOLN, Ill.—All five family members slain in their central Illinois home were killed by "blunt force trauma," a sheriff said Thursday, though he declined to provide other details, including whether authorities have recovered any weapons.
Logan County Sheriff Steven Nichols reported the autopsy finding after some of his initial comments raised more questions about the killings, particularly his statement that deputies responded after a 911 call reporting possible shots fired. Nichols said Wednesday that none of the victims had been shot.
