St. Louis – Three family members who had been missing for a week were found dead Wednesday in a basement closet in their suburban St. Louis home.
Relatives said they do not have additional information about how the three died.
Since Monday, police had been looking for 76-year-old Norma Manolakos and her two children, Michael Politte and Nedra Flippo.
The search began after police shot and killed Flippo's mentally ill son, 38-year-old Anthony Lynn. All four lived together at a home in south St. Louis County.
Lynn shot and wounded a county officer who went to the relatives' home to check on them at another relative's request.
