A brave nine-year-old girl called 911 after watching her father kill her entire family.
The dad turned up to his daughter's birthday party uninvited where he fatally shot her mother and two sisters before turning the gun on himself.
On Monday night, NYPD officers responded to the little girl's harrowing 911 call bout the murder-suicide, per NBC News. The tragic incident occurred at about 11:30PM at a Brooklyn apartment building in the 360 block of Sutter Avenue.
Upon arrival, the cops discovered two deceased victims in the hallway and one in the living room. All three of the victims had been pronounced dead at the scene, NBC News reports.

The perpetrator, identified as 46-year-old Joseph McCrimon, was found dead on the sidewalk near the apartment. He succumbed to his injuries after shooting himself, the authorities said.
According to the Associated Press, two guns were found near his body.
NYPD Chief of Detectives James Essig told the Associated Press that Barzey and McCrimon were the parents of the nine-year-old girl and had been together for 20 years.
McCrimon's other two victims were Barzey's daughters whom she shared with a different father. Their surviving nine-year-old sister has not been identified. The family were celebrating her birthday when the shooting occurred.
After dialing 911, she told the dispatcher: "Daddy's coming from my birthday... he didn't bring presents," Essig revealed to AP.
"It’s really heart-wrenching," he said of the tragic incident.
There had been no known incidents of domestic violence between Barzey and McCrimons and there had been no previous emergency calls. However, Essig explained to the outlet their relationship was "very rocky."
"We know he left in an agitated state to meet her," Essig said, according to AP.
Per AP, Police Commissioner Dermot Shea, who reviewed footage from the officers’ body cameras, said seeing the nine-year-old who called 911 "would tear your heart out."
McCrimons had once been convicted of manslaughter and was in state prison for more than eight years, according to jail records. He was released in 2003.
