COLE CAMP — A 911 call made the night a Cole Camp family was shot to death led investigators to a relative from Kansas who is charged in the fatal shootings. It also has police looking for additional suspects.
According to a probable cause statement, Benton County central dispatch received the emergency call at 10:16 p.m. June 7, but the operator couldn’t understand what was being said before the connection was broken. When dispatchers called the number back, the call went straight to voice mail.
