No arrests yet in stabbing deaths of four Idaho students

Police on Wednesday had still not apprehended any suspects linked to the stabbing deaths of four University of Idaho students. The victims were found Sunday in an off-campus home. Police have assured the community that the campus area is safe. But so many students have left campus that university officials have rescheduled a candlelight vigil originally planned for Wednesday to sometime after the Thanksgiving break.

Do the police know who killed the students? The Moscow Police Department has not said whether its investigators have identified any suspects. The department has said that the killings came in “an isolated, targeted attack” and that evidence at the scene indicates that there is no imminent threat to the community at large. Police have provided no information about that evidence or why they believe the victims were targeted.
