(CNN)Eight family members found dead in a rural southern Ohio community were shot in the head "execution style," most while they slept, authorities said Friday.
Officers are searching for the killer or killers, who are probably armed and a danger to surviving family members, Pike County Sheriff Charles Reader said.
"We have a specific family that's been targeted but I don't think there's been a threat to any other members of the community," he said."I've given the family precautionary measures to make. They know we're available."
