"When Debra Masser spoke to her brother Savvas Savopoulos by phone Thursday morning, the chief executive and father of a prominent local family seemed to be untroubled and in good spirits.
But hours later, Savopoulos, his wife and a boy authorities believe is their young son were found dead by firefighters who battled a blaze at their Northwest D.C. home."

"Police Chief Cathy L. Lanier said the fire at their stately home on Woodland Drive was intentionally set, three of the four victims inside had wounds, and the familys Porsche 911 was found torched in a church parking lot in Hyattsville."

"Lanier renewed a call she originally made Thursday for information about the movements of the familys blue 2008 Porsche 911, which disappeared from the home Thursday morning.
She asked the public to contact authorities if anyone had seen it between Wednesday and Thursday at 5 p.m. a larger time frame than authorities had initially requested. Lanier declined to explain why investigators now wanted to know the cars movements a day earlier.
The Porsche was found burning in Prince Georges County on Thursday evening, Lanier said. Prince Georges County Fire spokesman Mark Brady said firefighters extinguished the fire around 5:30 p.m. behind a church at 8201 Annapolis Rd. in Lanham. Lanier said it was unclear who had been driving the vehicle.
