Four bodies found believed to be from one Liechtenstein family

ZURICH, Dec 24 (Reuters) - ⁠Police ⁠on ‍Wednesday discovered the bodies of two men and two women believed ‍to belong to a single family from ​Liechtenstein, authorities in the tiny Alpine principality ​said.

Local police said at around 10:30 a.m. (0930 GMT), the body of a 41-year-old man from Liechtenstein was ​found on the Swiss side of the bank of the Rhine next ​to Liechtenstein's capital Vaduz. The cause of death was ‌unclear, Swiss police said.

Subsequent investigations led police to an apartment in Vaduz ​where they discovered the ⁠bodies of a 73-year-old man and two women, aged 68 and ‌45.

According to initial findings, the three were the parents and sister of the 41-year-old ‌man, Liechtenstein police said in a statement. What ‌caused their deaths is still being determined, a spokesperson for Liechtenstein police said.

The state police's criminal ‍investigation department is investigating the deaths with a large deployment of ⁠officers.

"The investigation is proceeding in all directions," the police statement said. "There is no danger to the public."
