The husband and wife who were killed in an apparent murder-suicide at a Jehovah’s Witnesses worship hall in Thornton on Christmas morning never went inside the building, a police spokesman said Monday.
But police believe either the husband or wife broke a window at Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses and threw three “pipe bomb in nature” incendiary devices inside the building as the incident unfolded, Officer Joe Walker said.
The devices did not explode and only one person was in the building at the time, he said.
