Wis. man wanted in 4 murders found dead

MADISON, Wis. -- Police say a man found dead in a sports utility vehicle Monday morning is a fugitive wanted in two double homicides in the Madison area.

Dane County Coroner Raymond Wosepka says the body was that of Tyrone Adair, who authorities had tried to find since Thursday night. That's when they found the bodies of an ex-girlfriend and the couple's young daughter in Madison and the bodies of his current girfriend and their young daughter in suburban Middleton. Adair was last seen driving a silver GMC Acadia.

A property owner in rural Cottage Grove, a village of 1,000 people about 15 miles east of Madison, called police on Monday morning and said an Acadia was parked off a county road. Police say they found a Adair's body inside.

Wosepka says it appeared Adair had died of a gunshot wound.
