New information has been released by police on Friday about the cross-state murder <\/a>that took the lives of 6 people and the suspected shooter in two neighborhoods in Fort Lauderdale and Sarasota. <\/p>\n

Fort Lauderdale police released the worried 911 call <\/a>from one of the Fort Lauderdale victims, Larisa Blyudaya’s daughter. <\/p>\n

“I need the police to come right now to check on my mom in Fort Lauderdale,” she told the dispatcher.<\/p>\n

She was afraid something was wrong at her mom’s Victoria Park Condo and who might be there.<\/p>\n

“There’s somebody that, whatever, an admirer of hers,” she said. <\/p>\n

She had to call several times – growing more concerned by the minute. <\/p>\n

“I’m not sure why an officer has not been dispatched yet,” the dispatcher said. <\/p>\n

“Can you please make sure an officer gets dispatched ASAP?” she asked. <\/p>\n

Also released was a call on Monday from the family of the mass murder suspect, Russell Kot, after they said he sent a suicidal text. They called the police to check on him. <\/p>\n

“We don’t know where he is , we can’t find him. \u00a0They went to his apartment, and he wasn’t there, and his car wasn’t there. So maybe he needs to try to find him,” the concerned caller said.<\/p>\n

Police say Kot took his own life after killing Larisa, her son, her parents, her brother, and a family friend. <\/p>\n

Deputies say in Kots car they found two handguns, ammunition, 5 knives, rope, tape, and an ax. \u00a0That’s in addition to the two guns, police say, he used to shoot his victims multiple times. <\/p>\n

Olga Greinert was helping out Larisa’s family when she was caught in the middle of the mass shooting. Her ex-husband and youngest son speak to CBS News Miami about finding out she had died.<\/p>\n

“They called me and said that Olga is dead. I nearly crashed because I was driving the car,” her ex-husband, Mykola Hreynbrt, said. <\/p>\n

“The thought of never seeing her again right now is just unthinkable,” her youngest son, Eldar, said. <\/p>\n

Now, the families of the victims want to remember their loved ones with positive messages. An online fundraiser for Olga said that she was a “kind, warm, and sincere person.” <\/p>\n

“She had a way of offering comfort, warmth, and a gentle smile,” it said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
