(CNN)A suspect has been charged with capital murder after deputies discovered the bodies of two adults and their six children in a Houston-area home early Sunday.

David Conley, 48, is being held with no bond, Harris County Sheriff's Chief Deputy Tim Cannon told reporters.

"Once again, a senseless tragedy has struck our community," he said. "Our hearts go out to the family and friends of those lost."

The incident started late Saturday night after authorities responded to a call to perform a check on the residence, said Thomas Gilliland, a spokesman for the Harris County Sheriff's Office.

When the deputies arrived at the scene, they tried to summon someone to the door, but no one showed up, Gilliland said.

"Information was obtained that a male was in the home and had a warrant for an aggravated assault on a family member," the spokesman said.

Deputies surrounding the house saw a child's body through the window and decided to enter the home, according to Gilliland. The suspect started shooting from inside the house, forcing them to pull back and wait for hostage negotiators and a unit that specializes in high-risk situations.

Negotiators then talked the suspect into coming out and then arrested him, Gilliland said.

"Upon entering into the home ... to check for the welfare for any other people in the house, the bodies of eight victims were found inside the residence," he said.

The victims' ages ranged from 6 to 50 and included a woman, her husband and their six children, according to Cannon. Authorities had initially said that five children and three adults were found dead. All were shot.

Cannon said the suspect's motives appear to be related to the woman, who was his former domestic partner. According to the lead investigator in the case, one -- and possibly two -- of the children killed might have been the suspect's child.

A relative of the woman made the initial call to perform a check on the residence, the investigator said.

1. He Was Arrested in July After Allegedly Smashing Jackson’s Head Into a Refrigerator While She Protected Her Child

Conley’s history of domestic violence arrests date back to at least 2000, according to the Houston Chronicle. He was most recently arrested in July when he allegedly smashed Valerie Jackson’s head into a refrigerator multiple times. She was trying to take a belt away from Conley that he planned to use on one of her children as punishment for staying out too late, police said.

 

2. He Wrapped an Electrical Cord Around a Baby’s Neck in 2000 & Threatened to Kill the Baby’s Mother

 

3. His Anger Over Locks at Jackson’s Home Being Changed May Have Led to the Killings, Police Say

 

Conley told police he recently found out that the locks on Jackson’s home were changed and was upset about that, according to The Associated Press.

 

“We do not — cannot — fully comprehend the motivation of an individual that would take the lives of so many innocent people. Especially the lives of the youngest,” Harris County Chief Deputy Tim Cannon told the AP. “The killer’s motives appear to be related to a dispute with Valerie, who was a former domestic partner.”

 

Police said Conley entered the home through an unlocked window.

 

4. Valerie Jackson’s Husband Also Had a History of Domestic Violence Against Her & Conley

 

 

According to the Houston Chronicle, Valerie Jackson and her husband, Dwayne, also had a history of domestic violence incidents. In October 2012, she filed for an emergency protective order against Dwayne Jackson, who she described then as her estranged husband. They had four children together, according to court documents.

 

She said Dwayne Jackson took her son’s social security and food stamps and hit her in the face several times in June 2012. He also said he would bomb or set fire to her house or “shoot her house up,” if she leaves, the Chronicle reports.

 

Dwayne Jackson was also convicted of criminal mischief in 2012 after he threw a brick at David Conley’s car, according to the Chronicle.
