Investigators believe Anderson shot the four around 7 a.m. as they slept in their beds, Ahern said. Anderson then set the fire and went to his parents' home, he said.
He left a note at the parents' home, Ahern said. The note did not take responsibility for the killings but indicated he was "despondent," Ahern said.
At the Dolton home, police found a .357-magnum revolver believed used in the shooting in Villa Park, Ahern said.
