A resident looks on as police search for suspect Bradley William Stone in Pennsburg, Pennsylvania, Dec. 16, 2014.

U.S. police may have found the body of an Iraq war veteran suspected of killing six family members Monday in suburban Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The local district attorney on Tuesday said police looking for 35-year-old Bradley William Stone found the body near his home and are awaiting identification.

Stone is alleged to have killed his ex-wife, former mother-in-law and a former grandmother-in-law, among others.

Police had called Stone armed and dangerous and urged residents in his hometown of Pennsburg, north of Philadelphia, to stay inside their homes with the doors locked.

Some material for this report came from AP and Reuters.
