As Idaho police and federal law enforcement continue their search to identify a suspect in the murders of four University of Idaho students, community members and local business owners are contributing to the memorials.

Four University of Idaho students, Ethan Chapin, 20; Xana Kernodle, 20; Madison Mogen, 21; and Kaylee Goncalves, 21, were stabbed to death early Sunday between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. at a Moscow, Idaho, residence near the university campus.

As of Friday night, police have no suspects in the fatal stabbings, according to a news release from the Moscow Police Department.

According to police, the Latah County Coroner believes “all four victims were likely asleep, some had defensive wounds, and each was stabbed multiple times.”

Local businesses throughout Moscow, Idaho, where the university is located, also displayed signs in support of the community after the four students were killed.
