Gilman was wanted in connection with the deaths of Tracy Ader and her eight and 10-year-old sons, who were found dead in their home Friday night.

Missoula law enforcement officials told Montana's News Station earlier on Monday that they have been advised to be on the look out for Gilman who may be traveling in the area.


Police are still searching for 22-year-old Dustin Gilman who is a suspect in the death of a woman and her two young sons in Spokane, Washington.

Tracy Ader and her eight and 10-year-old sons were found dead in their home Friday night. Gilman had been living in a trailer behind the family's home for several months.

One of Gilman's family members said Gilman called his father Friday night, admitted to the murders, said he didn't want to back to prison, followed by a gunshot.

Police say it's possible he committed suicide, but he also could have faked it to throw off investigators.

Gilman fled the scene in the victim's 2007 Nissan Pathfinder, Washington license 983 WKJ. Detectives believe Gilman may be armed with stolen firearms, including multiple handguns, hunting rifles, an SKS assault rifle with ammunition and a ballistic vest.

Missoula law enforcement officials confirm with Montana's News Station that they have been advised to be on the look out for Gilman who may be traveling in the area.

Gilman is considered armed and dangerous, and if anyone has any information about his whereabouts, please call 911 immediately.
