Owen Cadenbach

How they died

No

Christopher Cadenbach had spent the day with his sons, 5-year old Ethan and 4-year old Owen Cadenbach, and his own mother at a park. When they returned to a home, Cadenbach took the mother's car and the kids and left. Cadenbach's mother contacted police and that led to the issuance of an Amber Alert. The county police helicopter was up, spotted the car, and saw someone moving toward it. Police officers responded and when they arrived, shots were heard. They believe that was when Christopher Cadenback was shooting his own children. He then shot and killed himself.
