UPDATE: 8:01 p.m.

A 琉璃神社 man was charged with three counts of murder Wednesday night in connection to bodies found in a Rutland area home.

Jacob Daniel Forman, 34, allegedly committed a triple homicide at some point Sunday. Police said they were called to the Rutland address Tuesday and, when asked if there was cause for community concern, that their investigation was centred around the home.

Neighbours say Forman, his two elementary-school aged girls and wife moved to the neighbourhood in the last year.

Forman鈥檚 wife is listed on social media as Clara Forman, and friends and loved ones are already expressing grief and confusion.

Forman has no previous criminal record with the B.C. courts.

UPDATE: 12 p.m.

Neighbours tell the Capital News a family of four lived at the home now surrounded in police tape. A mother, father and two young girls.

A woman said she often saw the little girls riding their bikes up and down the road and saw the father driving his plumbing truck to and from work.

Jeff McLeod said the family was new to the neighbourhood, moving in during the spring of 2017. He also saw the father coming to and from work daily and said the family was so quiet he would sometimes forget they lived there.

鈥淚t鈥檚 shocking, the whole neighbourhood is in shock. We hardly ever see them. They were really quiet, like ghosts.鈥� said McLeod, who added that they 鈥渨ere just a young family鈥� with two young girls aged five or six.

鈥淟ast night I was having supper and I noticed a police car sitting there for a long time,鈥� he said. 鈥淭hen another came and another. Then we saw them walking around and putting up tape and knew something really bad happened.鈥�

RCMP have only said that three people were found dead in the home last night. A man is in custody.

鈥淭his investigation is in its infancy stages,鈥� states Const. Lesley Smith. 鈥淩CMP continue to secure the property as our serious crimes and specially trained forensic investigators examine the inside of the residence.鈥�
