The victims, whose bodies were badly burned, were found inside the shipping container, located 150 yards from the main casino building.

Ben Wolfinger, the Kootenai County sheriff’s spokesman, said the deaths appeared to be a tragic accident.

There is speculation that the metal container was used to store fireworks, as there are several operational fireworks stands on the reservation, however police spokesmen refused to say what was in the unit.
