Two men were found shot to death inside their Elk Grove home on the 8200 block of Triplefin Way in the early morning hours of June 23, 2025. Police were called just after 5:30 a.m. after reports of gunfire; arriving officers discovered a 51-year-old man and a 19-year-old man fatally wounded.

Investigators say a family argument escalated into fatal violence inside the residence. Authorities identified an 18-year-old family member, Noah Spencer Battaglia, as a suspect; he left the home before officers arrived but was located about two hours later at a South Sacramento address and taken into custody without incident. He was booked on two counts of homicide under California Penal Code 187. Police stated the killings were isolated to the home and did not name any additional suspects.

Does anyone in the Elk Grove area have information about the family or the events that morning that could help clarify what happened?
