CHELAN COUNTY, Washington (KXLY) — Three young girls reported missing from Washington have been found dead and their father is suspected of their murders.
According to the Wenatchee Police Department, 9-year-old Paityn Decker, 8-year-old Evelyn Decker, and 5-year-old Olivia Decker were found dead near the Rock Island Campground west of Leavenworth Monday.

The girls were last seen in Wenatchee on Friday, May 30 with Travis for a scheduled visitation. They were reported missing later that evening by their mother. A Missing Person Alert was issued on Saturday by Washington State Patrol.
