Moorhead, MN (KROC-AM News) - It appears investigators will have to wait for the results of toxicology screenings to learn what killed seven people inside a home in Moorhead.

A family member conducting a welfare check discovered the bodies of four adults and three children inside a residence Saturday evening. Moorhead Police say the preliminary autopsies performed on the remains ruled out any obvious trauma as the cause of death. Blood samples from the victims have been submitted to the Ramsey County Medical Examiner's Office lab for testing in hopes of determining the cause of the deaths.

Moorhead Police released the identities of the deceased this morning:

  • 5-year-old Marbely Hernandez
  • 7-year-old Mike Hernandez
  • 16-year-old Breylin Hernandez
  • 19-year-old Mariela Guzman Pinto
  • 32-year-old Eldor Hernandez Castillo
  • 34-year-old Marleny Pinto
  • 37-year-old Belin Hernandez

Moorhead Police previously said there were no signs of forced entry into the home and they were not actively seeking any suspects.
