Douglas County Sheriff's deputies responded to the Rueter-Hess Incline in Douglas County just before 9 a.m. on Jan. 11. Deputies found Timms and a juvenile male at that location. 

Meyers was found dead inside a home on Blackwolf Drive in Parker after officers were called to conduct a welfare check about an hour later.

Investigators believe Timms shot and killed Meyers at the Blackwolf Drive residence then drove with the juvenile male to the incline before shooting the child and then himself.
