A man in the US state of Alabama has confessed to throwing his four young children off a bridge, police said.
Lam Luong, 37, has been charged with four counts of murder. Divers are searching the waters along the coast of Alabama for the bodies of the children.
Mr Luong reported the children missing on Monday but later told police he threw them from a bridge connecting an island to the mainland near Mobile.
Police said he told them he had had an argument with his wife.
Police divers, boats and helicopters are looking for the bodies of two-year-old Hannah Luong, one-year-old Lindsey Luong and their four-month-old brother Danny Luong.
Also missing, presumed dead, is three-year-old Ryan Phan - the son of Mr Luong's wife, Ngoc Phan, from a different relationship.
Mr Luong came to Alabama from Vietnam in 1984 when he was a teenager and worked as a shrimper.
