COEUR d'ALENE, Idaho -- Idaho authorities have issued an Amber Alert for two children missing from a home where three people have been found slain.

Two of the three people found dead in a house east of Coeur d'Alene are the mother and older brother of the two missing children, Capt. Ben Wolfinger of the Kootenai County Sheriff's Office said. The third person found dead in the house is an unidentified man, Wolfinger said.

Investigators have talked with the father of the missing children, and said he's not considered a suspect.

Authorities said officers were called last evening by a neighbor reporting "suspicious circumstances" at the house near Coeur d'Alene. They said the case is "an obvious homicide."

A search is under way for Shasta Groene, 8, and her brother Dylan Groene, 9. Authorities have issued an Amber Alert for the pair.

Authorities said the children lived with the mother at the house.
