Police identify 3 killed in Tarpon Springs, Fla.

TAMPA, Fla. _ Tarpon Springs police have identified a couple and their adult son as the victims of a grisly triple homicide discovered on New Year's Day and said a 25-year-old man suspected in the slayings is in custody in Ohio. The suspect, according to investigators, is married to the couple's daughter, who is missing.

Richard Ivancic, 71; Laura Ivancic, 59; and Nicholas Ivancic, 25, were found dead inside a home at 1954 Juanita Way on Tuesday, according to authorities.

Jamie Ivancic, 21, is missing "under suspicious circumstances," according to authorities. Her husband, Shelby John Nealy, was taken into custody in Lakewood, Ohio, police said, and is a suspect. He also goes by the name Shelby Svensen.

The family may have been dead for days before the discovery. A neighbor said their air conditioning was running non-stop and he smelled a foul odor emanating from inside. Investigators also found three dogs dead in the home.

Police in Lakewood, Ohio, said they found a stolen SUV connected to the homicide early Thursday morning and arrested a man on suspicion of receiving stolen property. The vehicle, they said, was a 2013 Kia Sorento. A neighbor said earlier this week that the couple's SUV was missing from their driveway.
