What could be important evidence in a March triple homicide in Big Horn County, Wyoming , was discovered in Montana Monday.

The Sheridan County, Wyoming sheriff's office says three weapons, which are believed to belong to the suspect in the case , were discovered this morning in Big Horn County, Montana.

Dana Beartusk, 55, is facing three counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of three relatives: Seanna Fisher, Mochdaveyano Fisher and Angelina Beartusk. He has pleaded not guilty to the murders.

The three handguns were discovered by the side of a road near Kirby and have now been turned over to Wyoming law enforcement.

Beartusk is currently being held in the Sheridan County detention center on a $750,000 cash only bond.
