“She said it was like an ax.”
A neighbor (who wants to remain anonymous) says 1 of 2 survivors of the quadruple homicide ran to his house, bleeding.
He says she told him Gago attacked her in her sleep w/ a weapon. She said she fought him off & escaped. She thought he was high. pic.twitter.com/WWZp7nLXjo

Court documents show Gago was due to appear before a judge on March 25th for failing to pay child support.
His last payment? 4 years ago.
