Pipe bomb-style devices thrown through window during Jehovah’s Witnesses hall murder-suicide

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.

The devices did not explode and only one person was in the building at the time, he said.
