Detectives continue investigating the timeline and events that led to the shooting deaths of four individuals in the 500 block of West Brown Ave in Kellogg, Idaho, last night at around 7:20 p.m. The 31-year-old male initially detained by law enforcement was booked into the Shoshone County Jail on probable cause for murder.

Detectives continue working to establish a timeline and what led to the shooting," said District 1 Investigations Lieutenant Paul Berger. "As this case will go through the judicial process, we are ensuring every angle is covered with a thorough investigation."

The Shoshone County Coroner's Office took custody of the four deceased and will release victim identities, along with the cause and manner of their deaths.
