When cops showed up to the YMCA there were red blood stains on his vehicle. Blood was found on the driver’s side visor and the roof liner above the driver’s seat. When the police approached him, he was wearing two-toned yellow "shooting" glasses and wanted nothing to do with the cops.

Back to the parent's, officers responded to a welfare check of the couple at cheese factory. They were nowhere to be found, so they went to their home and unfortunately found them both dead. They were wrapped in blankets with plastic bags over their heads, dead from gunshot wounds.

The search warrant also discovered an AR Platorm Rifle in the kitchen of the home.
