A 13-year-old girl from Salina, Kansas was found dead in her home around 1:30 AM on Friday after she had been stabbed to death.
The Sheriff’s Department of the county isn’t revealing if arrests were made yet, or if anyone else was present inside of the home when Galazia Niehaus was murdered.
According to KWCH, a neighbor told the press soon after discovering the news:
“I heard that the parents were giving her CPR, and she’d been stabbed multiple times in the back.”
The outlet also reports that investigators are looking into a van that was found at Jerry Ivey Park in Salina, but are not yet sure if it is connected to Nierhaus’ murder.
The site reports:
Kochanowski says further information would come from the county attorney’s office once the investigation progresses. That Kansas Bureau of Investigations was asked to investigate by the Saline County Sheriff’s office. A spokesperson with the bureau says there is no reason to worry, and residents in the area are not in any danger.
Our prayers are with Galazia’s family and loved ones during this tragic time. We will keep you updated on the details as they emerge.
