Troopers were notified of a shooting about 4:30 p.m. and arrived at a home on US 62 West in the McHenry community to find three victims outside and dead from apparent gunshot wounds.
A detached structure was on fire and the Beaver Dam Volunteer Fire Department was in the process of putting out the blaze.
On Thursday, investigators found a fourth victim inside the burned detached structure.
Autopsies were scheduled for Thursday at the Regional Medical Examiner’s Office in Madisonville on the three victims who were initially discovered.
Names of those involved have not been released.
