Questions remain over how killer entered home of four Idaho students
Fox News contributor Ted Williams unpacks details in the murder of four University of Idaho students and covers the ongoing investigation.
Police revealed additional details about the events surrounding the stabbing of four University of Idaho students on early Sunday morning.
The four students, Ethan Chapin, 20; Xana Kernodle, 20; Madison Mogen, 21; and Kaylee Goncalves, 21, were stabbed to death while sleeping on early Sunday morning between 3 and 4 a.m. in a Moscow, Idaho, home on King Road the college campus, according to police.
Moscow Police Department Chief James Fry said there were no indications of a forced entry when officers responded to the residence after the 911 call was placed.
In an update posted on Saturday night, the Moscow Police Department said that the 911 call made at 11:58 a.m. on Sunday was placed "on one of the roommates’ cell phone."

Shortly before the attack, both Mogen and Goncalves were seen at the Grub Wandering Kitchen's food truck. The two were taken home by a "private party," according to police, but didn't add if the women knew the driver.
In Saturday's update, police said that they've investigated the driver who took the women home on Sunday night and "do not believe he is involved in this crime."
