GRAHAM, WASH. — Washington state investigators say five children 7 to 16 years old have been found dead in a Graham-area home and they may have been killed by their father.
Pierce County sheriff’s investigators told the News Tribune that the children apparently were homicide victims.
Spokesman Ed Troyer said the father, 35, was discovered dead Saturday afternoon in neighboring King County.
Deputies were called to check on the welfare of the children at a mobile home park after the father’s body was found.
Troyer identified the dead children as four girls and a 7-year-old boy.
