A father has killed his young daughters before shooting himself in the head in an attempted murder-suicide over a custody battle.<\/p>\n

Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Department said the man shot his daughters, aged five and seven, before shooting himself in the head.<\/p>\n

He was taken to hospital, where he is on life support, authorities said.<\/p>\n

Rincon District deputies arrived on the scene in the 5700 block of North Kolb Road in Tucson, Arizona, at around 7pm on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

They responded after the children\u2019s mother called 911 to report a threatening call she received from her estranged husband who had their daughters with him.<\/p>\n

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said the couple were having legal issues, Tucson News Now <\/a>reported, and the girls had been visiting their father at the time of the tragedy.<\/p>\n

He added that it appeared he had only recently moved into the condo, which was sparsely furnished.<\/p>\n

When deputies arrived, they tried to talk to the man from outside the front door.<\/p>\n

But shortly afterwards, they heard one shot was heard and forced entry into the home.<\/span><\/p>\n

The father and his two daughters were found inside, all with gunshot wounds.<\/p>\n

Deputies immediately began life-saving measures, authorities said.<\/p>\n

The seven-year-old girl was pronounced dead at the scene.<\/p>\n

The five-year-old was taken to Banner University Medical Center, but succumbed to her injuries.<\/p>\n

A news release from the Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Department said the Homicide Unit has taken over the investigation.<\/p>\n
