The break-in occurred one year earlier and less than 10 miles from where four University of Idaho students were murdered at their off-campus home.

According to ABC News, a year before those killings, police were called to a Washington state home where a woman said she fought off a masked intruder.

Bryan Kohberger, the man charged with stabbing four University of Idaho students to death, was investigated in a home invasion a year before the slayings, police said. ABC News reports that body camera footage shows police responding to a report of a home invasion less than 10 miles from where the students lived.

Officials are now saying Bryan Kohberger, the suspect charged in the quadruple homicide of four Moscow, Idaho students, was investigated in connection with a home invasion that took place before
