At least two people were killed and four others seriously injured in a shooting in southern Spain, police said on Tuesday.

A 25-year-old man was detained by the Civil Guard on suspicion of killing his parents in El Ejido, Andalucía around 11pm on Monday night, a police spokesperson told The Independent.

Four other people - a man, a woman and two children - were seriously injured in the shooting, police confirmed this morning, with a large presence still at the scence.

The Civil Guard said it was investigating the motive and circumstances of the attack, which local media reported occurred at a house in the El Canalillo neighbourhood.

Sources told El Mundo that the four people wounded in the attack were all hospitalised. Multiple medical teams were rushed to the scene to treat those with injuries.

The Civil Guard also sent members of its Rapid Action Group to respond and lead the investigation, local media reported. Officers from the national police and the local police were also on scene to support.

Europa Press reported that the suspect handed himself in to local police early on Tuesday after initially fleeing.
