Colo. missing children found safe after parents found dead in possible murder-suicide, police say
(CBS/AP) DENVER - Two children reported missing in Denver after their parents were found dead in a suspected murder-suicide have been found safe. Their mother was found dead inside their home and their father's body was found inside a car, according to CBS Denver.
Police had issued an Amber Alert for the children, ages 1 and 5, on Wednesday. The woman and the man, a married couple, reportedly lived in the Valley Ranch home with the children.
According to the station, it is unclear how the woman died but police are considering it a murder-suicide.
The suspect in the case, identified as 32-year-old Dominic Moore, is the children's father.
CBS Denver reports Moore led police on a chase, and when officers approached his car they heard a single gunshot. The man was found dead with a self-inflicted wound.
The two children were reportedly found later at an apartment in Aurora, Colo., and it is unclear how they arrived there.
Authorities say a third child, a 15-year-old boy also thought to be missing, was visiting people out-of-state and is safe.
