6 Bodies Found At Rural Property Near Seattle

CARNATION, Wash. (AP) - The bodies of six people have been found at a rural property east of Seattle, King County sheriff’s detectives said Wednesday.

The victims include males and females, said sheriff’s Detective Bob Conner. He would not give their ages, cause of death or other details. He said police did not know whether the killer or killers were among the dead.

“That we don’t know,” he said. “We’re not ruling out murder-suicide.”

Conner said officers and a sheriff’s helicopter were searching the area to determine whether there might be other victims.

The property includes a house and a mobile home at the end of a dirt road, part of a cluster of other rural properties about 21 miles east of Seattle.
