Chelan County Sheriff expresses gratitude as search for suspected murderer continues

The Chelan County Sheriff’s Office is searching for Travis Decker, suspected of murdering his three daughters, ages 5, 8, and 9. Sheriff Mike Morrison expressed gratitude for the public's assistance, which has included valuable tips and equipment offers. Two helicopters from the Spokane County Sheriff are involved in the search, alongside federal officers.

Decker, a military veteran, is believed to have mental health issues.

He is described as a white male, 5′ 8″ tall, weighing 190 lbs, with black hair and brown eyes. Morrison will provide additional information at a news conference scheduled for Wednesday evening at 6 p. m. The community's involvement highlights the urgency and emotional impact of this tragic case.
