YAKIMA – Police have arrested a 44-year-old man who allegedly killed his wife southeast of Yakima.
The Yakima County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release that deputies responded to a call Friday morning from the teenage children of a woman they said was missing near the town of Granger.
Investigators said the teens told them their parents argued Thursday night and that their father was intoxicated. When they awoke Friday, they told authorities their father was gone and they couldn’t find their mother.
The sheriff’s office said human remains were then discovered on the property. An autopsy is scheduled for Monday.
