Multi-County Washington Manhunt Continues for Armed Travis Decker

Authorities in Washington State are conducting a multi-county manhunt for Travis Decker, a 32-year-old military veteran accused of murdering his three young daughters. The daughters, aged 9, 8, and 5, were found dead near a campground after their mother reported them missing when Decker failed to return them following a scheduled visit. Law enforcement agencies have executed several search warrants, including on Decker's electronic devices, uncovering new leads that are guiding the ongoing investigation. Residents in Chelan, Kittitas, King, Snohomish, and Okanogan counties, especially those in remote or rural areas, are urged to secure all buildings, including sheds and outbuildings, keep exterior lights on, and leave window blinds open to aid surveillance. Authorities warn that Decker, with his military survival training, is considered armed and dangerous and may be living off the grid in forested areas, making him difficult to find and approach. The public is advised not to attempt contact if they see Decker but to call 911 immediately and report any information to the Chelan County Sheriff's Office tip line.
