The bodies of three children were found inside a vehicle that was pulled from a pond in Indianapolis, Indiana, late Tuesday night, the Indianapolis Metro Police Department said in a press conference.

The children were found after the body of an adult man was discovered in the water.

The bodies have not yet been positively identified but are likely Kyle Moorman and his children, an Indianapolis family who have been missing since July 6, police said.

"There is commonality with the Moorman family," an officer said in the news conference at the scene. "We can’t verify, in fact, that Kyle Moorman and his three children Kyran, (1), Kyannah, (2), and Kyle Moorman II, (5), were inside the car or in the pond, but at this point all signs point to them.

He said the vehicle matches the description of the one Moorman was said to have been driving.

The incident is currently being treated as a death investigation, the officer said, noting there are a lot of questions surrounding the circumstances of the deaths.

The family disappeared last Wednesday after Moorman said he was driving to his brother’s house to go fishing.

Omg, those children are adorable. Right now I'm hoping it was a tragic accident and not a murder-suicide.

Once they confirm the identities I will change the header to deceased.

I wouldn't be able to name a child Kyran after the whole Kyron Horman thing... This is just awful.

Soooo he was driving drunk with his kids and drunkenly drove them all to their deaths at the bottom of a pond? Holy shit! I can't imagine how scared those babies were as the car sunk and filled with water. Fucking heartbreaking and 1000% completely avoidable.

Seriously. That's one of my biggest fears. (Drowning in my car, not drunkenly driving us into a pond...) So much so, that I've got the seat belt cutter with the window shatter tool in both driver and passenger seats in our cars.

**We live in Colorado. Definitely not anywhere near bodies of water ... but we saw record breaking flooding last year and I was not taking chances.**

This is so sad.
