An elite Federal Bureau of Investigations unit has joined the search for the suspect who allegedly killed 4 University of Idaho students on early Sunday morning.

4 University of Idaho students, Ethan Chapin, 20; Xana Kernodle, 20; Madison Mogen, 21; and Kaylee Goncalves, 21, were killed inside a home in Moscow, Idaho between the hours of 3 & 4:00 a.m. on Sunday.

Police found the 4 deceased students while responding to an unconscious person call on Sunday at 11:58 a.m.

Officials said on Tuesday in a press release that the suspect used an "edged weapon such as a knife" in the attack against the students. Investigators believe that the incident was "an isolated, targeted attack" with "no imminent threat to the community at large."

A spokesperson for the Federal Bureau of Investigations told Fox News Digital on Thursday that its Behavioral Analysis Unit is assisting local law enforcement officials in the case.

Jackie Fisher, owner of the Mad Greek Restaurant, where both Mogen & Kernodle worked, told Fox News Digital that she's deeply saddened by the incident.

"All I can say right now is that we're just all deeply saddened by the loss of both Maddie & Xana, they were wonderful workers. They've been here for a couple of years with me," Fisher said. "All of the employees are just shook right now, I think as well as the rest of the Moscow community.
