Officials also stated that the suspects were not local residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hamden is a village of fewer than 1,000 residents located about 60 miles (97 kilometers) southeast of Columbus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The children ranged in age from 2 to 18 years old and included both boys and girls, officials said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Several of the children were in critical condition when they were found, while two had to be transported to trauma centers for treatment of their injuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yost described the scene as the worst he had witnessed in his entire career, calling what investigators encountered &#8220;pure evil.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Police also executed a search warrant at the property on Tuesday, and the investigation remains ongoing. The four suspects are scheduled to appear in court on Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Justice will be served for these children,&#8221; Yost told KSAT.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/the-karadordevics-awoke-the-diaspora-in-chicago-serbia-should-return-to-its-tradition-to-be-a-monarchy-again-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">THE KARA\u0110OR\u0110EVI\u0106S AWOKE THE DIASPORA IN CHICAGO: \u201cSerbia should return to its tradition, to be a monarchy again!\u201d (VIDEO)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/serbian-among-the-victims-in-a-plane-crash-skydiving-instructor-filip-kovacevic-killed-in-an-accident-in-france\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">SERBIAN AMONG THE VICTIMS IN A PLANE CRASH: Skydiving instructor Filip Kova\u010devi\u0107 killed in an accident in France!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/if-he-does-not-give-up-he-is-going-to-the-cemetery-kokeza-hired-criminals-to-attack-nemanja-vidic-scandalous-messages-revealed\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">\u201cIF HE DOES NOT GIVE UP, HE IS GOING TO THE CEMETERY\u201d: Kokeza hired criminals to attack Nemanja Vidi\u0107, scandalous messages revealed!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/great-initiative-from-england-how-to-most-easily-teach-your-children-in-the-diaspora-to-write-and-read-cyrillic-photo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">GREAT INITIATIVE FROM ENGLAND: How to most easily teach your children in the diaspora to write and read Cyrillic!
