The CEO of a medical lab was among the victims of a triple slaying at a gated community in Newport Beach, California, late on Wednesday and police have taken a 27-year-old man into custody in connection with the deaths.

Fox News reports that Richard Nicholson, 64, chief executive officer of West Pacific Medical Laboratory in Irvine, his wife, Kim, 61, and their cleaner were reportedly the victims.

Oh, the horror of growing up in a slum like Newport Beach.
