Australian police investigate how 3 died after apparently eating wild mushrooms

Australian police on Wednesday were trying to figure out how three people died and a fourth became critically ill after apparently eating wild mushrooms at a family lunch.
Homicide detectives have been investigating the case. Police have interviewed the woman who they say cooked the meal at her home on July 29 but didn’t become ill herself. Police released her without filing any charges but say she remains a suspect.
The woman told media outside her home in the town of Leongatha, in Victoria state, that she didn’t know what had happened.
The woman declined to answer questions about what meals were served to which guests or the origin of the mushrooms.
Victoria Police Det. Inspector Dean Thomas said it wasn’t clear what type of mushrooms the guests had eaten, but their symptoms were consistent with those from a death cap, a particularly deadly variety.
He said it would take some time to determine what happened and police were keeping an open mind.
