(WWJ) Many questions remain surrounding the deaths of two campers at Isle Royale National Park in the Upper Peninsula, but we are getting more information.
The two campers, identified as a father and son, are believed to have died by murder-suicide, but it's not known yet who died first.
That's according to Keweenaw County Medical Examiner Dr. Michael McAllister, who spoke with MLive about the case.
The National Park Service received reports last Sunday of two dead people at a remote campground, according to the park service.
Rangers hiked some 11 miles overnight to the site at the campground and reached the scene Monday morning, confirming the two bodies were found. Local authorities and the FBI responded, with ground an aviation units assisting.
The Keweenaw County Sheriff's Office has not been commenting on the case, refering all questions to the National Park Service.
The names and ages of the two people have not been released as the investigation into the deaths continues.
Isle Royale, located in northwest Lake Superior, is famous for being Michigan's largest island, covering more than 206 square miles, and home to a relatively stable gray wolf population. The island and the numerous surrounding smaller islands make up Isle Royale National Park, known for its extensive hiking trails, shipwrecks, historic lighthouses, ancient copper mines, and variety of wildlife.
