A New York police sergeant killed his wife and their two sons, ages 10 and 12, before fatally shooting himself, authorities said.

The murder-suicide scene at Watson Morgan’s home in New City was discovered just after midnight on Saturday, according to the Clarkstown Police Department.

“At this phase of the investigation it is believed that Watson killed his wife and two children, prior to killing himself with a self-inflicted gunshot wound,” police said in a press release. “A handgun was recovered at the scene. This investigation is of an isolated incident and the public is not in any danger.”

Morgan, 49, worked for the Bronxville Police Department and had previously worked for the NYPD. His wife, Ornela Morgan, 43, was a public school teacher.

Her Facebook page features several photos of the smiling family on vacation, and his page has a photo of his wedding day along with snaps of him with his boys at a football game.
