MONTREAL—Provincial police say two young sisters found dead after an Amber Alert near Quebec City this month were murdered with a blunt object by their father, who then took his own life.

All three deaths occurred within a 12-hour period following a July 8 car crash, police said Wednesday, updating the public on the case that gripped the province. Police had searched an area around a Quebec City suburb for 10 days before ending ground operations last weekend.
