A Las Vegas father killed his girlfriend and their 11-month-old son before turning the gun on himself in an apparent double murder-suicide several days ago, PEOPLE confirms.
A Clark Country Coroner's Office spokeswoman has identified John Lunetta, 40, as the man police say killed Karen Jackson, 34 and 11-month-old John Jr., before taking his own life.
The bodies were found Monday night in a home near Mountains Edge Parkway and Rainbow Boulevard, police said in a statement obtained by PEOPLE.
"The first thing I asked the cop was, 'How's the baby?" one neighbor, Christy, told the Las Vegas Review-Journal. "He just looked at me . it's so sad."
Police said the bodies had been in the home for at least a day before they were discovered, according to the Review-Journal. Now, as investigators work to determine the circumstances surrounding the deaths, neighbors in the Southwest Valley neighborhood are trying to wrap their heads around the tragedy.
"It was very shocking to hear," neighbor Michael Bernardo told the publication. "I know [Lunetta] loved his baby."
Bernardo's wife, Denise Bernardo, added: "This is deranged. He must have snapped."
