Law enforcement officials in Moscow, Idaho are now calling the quadruple homicide of four University of Idaho students an “isolated, targeted” attack. Police believe the four students became targets of a targeted attack over the weekend and were apparently stabbed to death.

• FOX NEWS – Their deaths have been ruled homicides, and while “no weapons have been located, based on preliminary information, investigators believe that an edged weapon such as a knife was used” in the attack, the Moscow Police Department (MPD) said in a Tuesday morning statement.

• CNN – “Investigators are continuing to work diligently on establishing a timeline of relevant events to re-create the victims’ activities on the evening of November 12 and early morning of November 13, following all leads and identifying persons of interest,” a police statement says.

• CBS2 IDAHO NEWS – Multiple sources report that the FBI has now joined the investigation alongside Moscow Police in the suspected homicide of four University of Idaho students this weekend.

• CBS NEWS – Autopsies scheduled to be completed later this week could provide more information on the exact cause of death.
