A Seattle man killed his daughter and teenage granddaughter before taking his own life as his 10-year-old grandson looked on, authorities say.
The boy called 911 just after 8 p.m Monday night to report the shootings. He was 'shaken up' but uninjured, Seattle Assistant Police Chief Nick Metz said.
None of the victims were identified, but cops say the gunman was a man in his 60s.
Mayor Ed Murray called the shooting 'a family tragedy.' Cops are unsure of the motive.

'One thing I would say is the neighborhood itself is safe,' Murray said.
