terrible situation? >> well, matt, the family says the father was an excellent father to his 13-year-old daughter. we just saw them. they left this home not too long ago, taking some belongings out of the house with them. his sister tells us that he worked hard and long hours and thinks that could have played a role that led up to his death. investigators found the bodies of 42-year-old and his 13-year-old daughter inside the home sunday night. they stopped by for a well-being check after family members say they didn't hear from them for days. detectives say that they found the bodies inside the home and suicide. they haven't said how the young girl died. the family says the girl just celebrated her 13th birthday on valentine's day. the sister tells us the man worked long hours in the food industry, sometimes six days a week and thinks that could have led up to his death. >> what's happened inside right now, i cannot say anything because i don't know. i don't know why he do like that. >> the sheriff's office is waiting to get autopsy results before ruling how the young girl died. that could take a week or longer to get those. >> amanda castro live for us. thank you. >> some breaking news in orange county now where we've learned the teen accused of running down a deputy last week is now in jail. >> the 15-year-old turned himself in this afternoon. we first told you about this through a push alert on our news 6 mobile app this afternoon. the sheriff's office tells news 1:15 this afternoon. news 6 reporter jennifer ortega has been following this in our newsroom and joins us live. what did the sheriff have to say about this? >> the sheriff says ortiz turned himself in at his mother's house and had no comments to say when they took him into custody. they're still trying to figure out why ere he's been since friday. investigators say ortiz turned himself in on the 800 block of high street at his mother's house. they say he cooperated when being taken into custody but a much different story last friday when detectives say ortiz deliberately ran over sergeant marcy pierce after trying to serve him a warrant. she was rushed to the hospital in critical condition and now recovering at home. the sheriff says he's glad they were able to get ortiz off the streets. >> i'm very grateful that, for two reasons, one that my deputy sheriff is going to be okay. two that this young man turned himself in and we did not have force to bring him into custody. >> now, sergeant pierce made this video over the weekend and in it she says she was very sore, her foot is fractured and she has stitches in her head but she's at home recovering. again, deputies located -- actually located the car that was used to hit the deputy. ortiz faces a laundry list of

unique idea. we're told the money of this law enforcement trust fund is equipment. but starting today, it's these neighborhood, private armed security guards, now patrolling, hoping to cut down on crime but the sheriff says this is all just a test run, only lasting a few months but costing well into the six figures. >> comparing them to security guards in gated communities, wearing these uniforms, armed with a handgun. increasing patrols to keep an extra eye in both the azalea park and holden heights neighborhoods. if you go into high-end communities where homes sit behind gates, the first thing you often see when you get to those communities are private security officers. >> back in october, the orange county commission approved the use of $150,000 from a law enforcement trust fund. money collected from criminal fines. sheriff jerry demings says the azalea neighborhood isn't riddled with crime but chose the area because of its residents taking a proactive stand to work alongside law enforcement. >> neighborhoods like this may the police resources with private security. we're using the forfeiture funds to be able to do that. >> the same company the county uses at the courthouse and other administration offices, even though armed, the security guards are not able to make an arrest. the community patrols are set to expire in a few months with sheriff demings saying hopefully the partnership can be expanded to other areas in the county. >> our ultimate goal is to reduce crime and the fire of crime and victimization during the process and make the residents here feel safer as a community. >> and we're also asking the sheriff's office who would be liable if a citizen filed a complaint against one of these private security guards, similar to if a citizen filed a complaint against a sheriff's deputy because of an interaction they had. hear what they had to say about the increased patrols. live in azalea park, troy campbell, news 6. >> thank you. for answers
