Human remains, believed to be of a man wanted on suspicion of murdering his three daughters, aged nine, eight and five, have been found in the US state of Washington.
Police had been searching for Travis Decker since officers found his phone and the bodies of his girls Paityn, Evelyn and Olivia in a remote campground on 2 June. His truck was also found nearby.
“While positive identification has not yet been confirmed, preliminary findings suggest the remains belong to Travis Decker,” Chelan County Sheriff’s Office said on Thursday in a statement.
The remains were discovered in a remote wooded area south of the town of Leavenworth, in Washington state, officials said.
