The coroner’s office identified them as Santa Ana residents Jordan Block, 25, and her uncle, Brian Martin, 64.

Investigators believe Clark shot himself in the head. According to police, he died on Sunday after spending several days in the hospital in critical condition.

Investigators found a large collection of weapons, including swords and knives, inside Martin’s storage unit.

A bloody spear was found at the murder scene. It’s unknown whether the weapon was used in the stabbings, but Jessica Chandler, a friend of Martin, said it’s likely part of his vast collection of swords and knives.
