MARSHALL, Minn. (AP) — Grief counselors will be available this week at Marshall Middle School to help students cope with the deaths of two 14-year-old girls.

Lyon County sheriff’s deputies were called to a home in Island Lake Township, just southwest of Marshall, Saturday where Haylee Fentress and Paige Moravetz were found dead.

Investigators tell KSTP-TV the girls apparently took their own lives. Both girls were from nearby Lynd.
