3 corpses found inside Evanston home

EVANSTON _ Authorities say three people found dead today inside a house in suburban Chicago were dead "for some time."

Evanston police said Friday that a preliminary investigation shows foul play wasn't involved. The three are believed to be siblings.

Police say an elderly woman led them to a home where the bodies were found.

The woman was accompanied by a city of Evanston senior representative. Authorities are investigating why she didn't report the deaths sooner.

Forensics teams are trying to determine the sex and ages of the three dead. They're also working on the causes of death.

Autopsies are scheduled for Saturday.
