A fourth person has died, an 11-year-old girl, as the result of a murder-suicide in Colesville. 

On Monday, police say 57-year-old Yong Kim shot and killed his 48-year-old wife Sang, and then shot their three children. 

Both Sang and Yong died on Monday along with their son, 10-year-old Andy Kim. On Friday police announced 11-year-old Mina Kim succumbed to her injuries and died as well. 

Police say Yong and Sang's other child, a 22-year-old woman, is in stable condition at the hospital. 

Preliminary findings from police show that whatever happened in that home was triggered by the end of a marriage. 

Detectives are continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding this murder-suicide.  Anyone with information is asked to call the Major Crimes Division at 240-773-5050. Callers may remain anonymous.
