Four people found dead at Pericoe
June 27, 2008
The Mayor of the Bega Valley Shire, Cr Tony Allen, said the community was shocked by the tragedy of four people found dead at Pericoe today.
“This is a close-knit community and a tragedy like this affects everyone,” Cr Allen said.
He said he was unable to comment on any details of the case as police were still investigating but extended his condolences and those of the Council to the family concerned and to the Pericoe community.
The mother of three children found dead with their father in a car at a remote former commune in NSW has been found alive and well, police say.
The bodies of a 44-year-old man, an 18-month-old boy, a girl, 5, and a boy aged 7, were discovered in the driveway of the Pericoe property about 11am (AEST) Friday, police said.
