Four people killed at an Oklahoma marijuana farm over the weekend were "executed," state police said Tuesday. Investigators also said the dead were Chinese citizens. The Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation said three men and one woman were slain on the 10-acre farm west of Hennessey, about 55 miles northwest of Oklahoma City. A fifth victim who was wounded and who is also a Chinese citizen was taken to an Oklahoma City hospital, state police said. Authorities have a suspect in mind, but the OSBI said releasing the person's name right now would put more people in danger, the AP reports. OSBI Capt. Stan Florence said authorities believe the suspect knew the victims, who were found dead Sunday night after a report of a hostage situation.

The wounded person was taken to a hospital in undisclosed condition, according to the statement, which said the deaths are being investigated as a quadruple homicide and that investigators have not identified a suspect.
