The son of former Red Sox baseball star George Scott killed his eight-year-old son before taking his own life, authorities say.

Police discovered the bodies of George Scott III, 53, and Dante Hazard inside his home in New Bedford, Massachusetts, after being asked to perform a wellness check, Bristol County District Attorney Thomas Quinn told the Boston Globe.

Authorities had searched the property three weeks ago in connection with the 2019 disappearance of his former partner Lisa Hazard, who was the boy’s mother, Mr Quinn said in a statement.

Scott was considered a person of interest in her unsolved disappearance, he said.

It appeared that Scott had taken the boy’s life with a sharp object before dying by suicide, the district attorney said. Several knives were recovered from the property.

“We are awaiting the medical examiner’s confirmation of these and other details,” he said, according to WCVB.

Authorities were alerted after a relative had been unable to contact Scott, the district attorney said.

Massachusetts state troopers were seen taking items in large cardboard boxes from the home on Friday.

Sounds like LE was closing in and he took the easy way out. Too bad he didn't take only himself out. That poor kid.
