A Texas man is in custody after allegedly shooting and killing six people, including four children, during a domestic dispute in Spring. 
 
33-year-old Ron Lee Haskell surrendered Wednesday night after an hours-long standoff.
 
Investigators say the victims were all family members of Haskell's ex-wife.
 
Documents read in court Thursday laid out the tragic events: Haskell went to the Spring home looking for his ex-wife. When he first got there, the 15-year-old girl opened the door and she told him her parents weren't home. He left, but later returned, forcing his way inside. He then tied up the girl and waited for her parents and the other children to arrive. When they did, he also tied them up and asked where his ex-wife was.
 
They told him they didn't know. Then, he allegedly began shooting them one by one in the back of the head.
