How they died
Deadly force
El Paso County sheriff's deputies were checking the man's home after the children's mother told authorities she was worried he might hurt their children, police said. Deputies looked through a window to see two boys laying on the bed with a "significant of blood on or around them." The sight of so much blood in the bedroom forced deputies to act quickly. Deputies burst into the home and were confronted by the father, who was wielding a knife, so they shot and killed him.
