Two homeless men, brutally killed with an ax in Seattle , were allegedly murdered by the same suspect. Liam Kryger, 25, is being held without bail in the King County Jail.Authorities recently linked the two murders, according to court documents obtained by FOX 13 Seattle . Seattle Police Chief Adrian Diaz stated that Kryger was found with an ax at the time of his arrest, potentially preventing another murder.Both victims, Paul Ewell and Daravuth Van, were attacked while sleeping outdoors.
Chief Diaz noted that police set up surveillance operations due to the violence. One detective spotted Kryger with an object, later identified as an ax, which he dropped while fleeing.The ax, purchased from a Lowe’s off Rainier Avenue just hours before Ewell's murder, led investigators to Kryger. A Department of Corrections officer recognized him from surveillance images, leading to his arrest on March 3.
