PRINCE RUPERT, B.C. — There’s a large police presence at a home in the northwest British Columbia city of Prince Rupert where four people were found dead.

A neighbour, who didn’t want to disclose her name, says officers appear to be gathering evidence inside and outside the house and a police investigation tent has been set up in the front yard.

She says she did not know the people whose bodies were found inside the home.

Prince Rupert RCMP say a homicide investigation is underway after officers responded to a call Tuesday evening to the 100 block of Silversides Drive.
