A woman and two young boys were found stabbed to death in their home hours after the woman's husband died while driving the wrong way on Interstate 94 near Michigan City, Ind. early Thursday, police say. Police say Michael Van Der Linden, 38, pulled out of a rest park around 1:30 a.m. and headed east in the westbound lanes, striking a car in the center lane, police said. The cars erupted in flames and both drivers were killed, police said. When officers arrived at Van Der Linden's home in Van Buren Township, Mich. near Detroit to notify his family, they found the door ajar. They went inside and found the bodies of Van Der Linden’s 34-year-old wife and two sons, 4 and 7, according to LaPorte County Medical Examiner John Sullivan. Sullivan said it appears Van Der Linden stabbed his wife and kids and then fled, but said the investigation was continuing. They were each found in their beds in separate rooms. “They want us to look for a knife in the vehicle, but the vehicle is completely burned up and destroyed,” he said.
