Authorities have shared new information on a pair of shootings Tuesday that left four people dead in Bowdoin, Maine, and three more hospitalized, one critically injured, on Interstate 295 in Yarmouth.

Days after being released from a Maine jail, a man gunned down his parents and two family friends he was staying with on Tuesday, then opened fire on cars on a highway nearby, sending three family members to the hospital, officials said Wednesday.

He said the four people Joseph Eaton shot and killed in Bowdoin were his parents, 66-year-old David Eaton and 62-year-old Cynthia Eaton, as well as their friends and the owners of the home, 72-year-old Robert Eger and his wife, 62-year-old Patricia Eger.David Eaton was found outside in the barn, and the other three were found inside the home. Autopsies determined that all four died of gunshot wounds and their deaths have been ruled homicides, according to police.

“This is an active investigation with a lot of moving parts,” Shannon Moss, state police spokesperson, said Wednesday. “They were just passersby in the wrong place at the wrong time,” he said of his family. “It’s horrible what happened.”
