[cobirds] Deceased Turkeys

Birders, does anyone have any insight into what might cause one hen, one jennie or jake and one tom to die on the same property/same day in a residential neighborhood? The tom was found face-down in the open space behind my neighbor's home and the other two were on her driveway in different spots. No evidence of being preyed on or blood. A large flock passed through her front yard/driveway and she saw them on her Ring camera, but she didn't see anything unusual. They were making a lot of noise while passing through. Our neighborhood is relatively close to the Quarry fire, but not close enough to be evacuated. I'm hoping the experts in this group might have a plausible explanation, as it's pretty unsettling!
