BRUNSWICK, Ohio -- A man police say is a suspect in connection with the deaths of three women in North Royalton was taken into custody early Tuesday morning after a standoff of more than eight hours. 
 
 The 45-year-old suspect was led out of a house in Brunswick just before 5:30 a.m. 
 
 Brunswick Police Lt. Robert Safran said police subdued the man, who was armed with a handgun, with a Taser after gaining entry to the house through the unlocked front door. 
 
 "That was some good work by our tactical officers," Safran said. 
 
 The standoff at the home in the 3300 block of Valley Forge Drive began at about 9 p.m. after officers became aware that the man was at the home. The owner of the home, a female, was able to walk out unharmed. 
 
 The suspect refused to leave the home for more than eight hours, and officers could be heard talking to him through a loudspeaker beginning at about 2:30 a.m. 
 
 Residents on the street were told by police to remain in their homes during the standoff. A section of Valley Forge was blocked off as the standoff continued. 
 
 Police say the suspect is wanted for questioning in the deaths of Suzanne Taylor, 45, and her daughters Taylor Pifer, 21, and Kylie Pifer, 18, who were found dead Sunday evening at their North Royalton home.

 The three bodies were under covers, almost as though they’d been tucked into bed, detective Dave Loeding tells PEOPLE. 
 
 Investigators believe the killings were specific — not random — but they do not have a suspect and they have not made an arrest, Loeding says, describing the case as “tragic.” 
 
 Police received a 911 call from Taylor’s boyfriend on Sunday night, Loeding says, claiming one of the girl’s boyfriends called him after finding their bodies. 
 
 Upon arrival, investigators noticed there appeared to be no signs of forced entry, Loeding says. Police suspect the daughters were killed elsewhere in the home before their bodies were moved to their mother’s bed.

 According to Loeding, Taylor appeared to have died after sustaining a knife wound while her daughters’ causes of death remain unknown. They did not appear to have “obvious signs of death,” but police believe both daughters were homicide victims. 
 
 Forensic evidence collected from the scene is currently being investigated, Loeding says. Autopsies are also being conducted. 
 
 “[We] feel confident that all the things we’re doing are going to turn into a positive outcome,” he says. 
 
 On Monday, the girl’s stepmother told local TV station WJW that the family was blindsided. “They were great kids,” she said. “Taylor and Kylie were great students. Taylor was majoring in fashion design, while Kylie was involved in theater and was majoring in forensic science.” ||||| Police say a woman and her two daughters were found dead in a North Royalton home Sunday night. 
 
 According to North Royalton police, a family friend found the mother and her daughters dead in the bedroom of a home located in the 11400 block of Ridge Road around 8 p.m. Sunday. 
 
 Police identified the women as Suzanne Taylor, 45, and her two daughters, Taylor and Kylie. 
 
 Their bodies were found by Taylor's boyfriend, Dale Koster, according to a 911 call. Kostar called and told the mother's boyfriend, Scott Plymale, who then called 911. 
 
 "He (Kostar) said they didn't open the door, he picked the lock and went in and he said the bedroom door is closed and opened the bedroom door and he said there's a body in here," said Plymale.

 Sonya Pifer, a woman who claims to be the stepmother of the younger victims, told Cleveland 19 that Taylor, 21, attends Kent State University and Kylie, 18, attends Bowling Green. According to the stepmother, Taylor and Kylie's father has been estranged from the girls since they became adults. 
 
 Police said one of the victims was stabbed to death. The cause of the other women's death is still under investigation. 
 
 "A knife was used in one death. I cannot tell you on the others because there's not a visible sign of how death occurred," said North Royalton Det. Dave Loeding. 
 
 A motive for the murders remains unclear.

 There have been no arrests made in connection to the deaths, but police say there are "persons of interest." 
 
 "Let police work take its course. I know people need answers. I'd like to give you answers. There's a lot of pathology and a lot of evidence that needs lab," said Det. Loeding. 
 
 Police and officials from the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation are still investigating the incident. Detectives remained on the scene overnight and into Monday morning.
