The bodies of seven women have now been found in north-western Indiana after a man confessed to killing one woman who was found strangled at a motel and leading investigators to least three other bodies, authorities said on Monday.

The Lake County coroner’s office said three of the bodies were found on Sunday night at two locations in Gary, in addition to the four bodies found earlier over the weekend. The coroner’s office called the new deaths homicides, with one victim strangled and unspecified injuries for the other two women.

It was not immediately clear on Monday whether the man directed police to the three bodies on Sunday night. Phone and email messages seeking comment from Gary police spokeswoman, Corporal Gabrielle King, were not immediately returned.
