He killed his family and uploaded the photos of the bodies to the networks

A 15-year-old Texan teenager murdered his mother, father, sister and two dogs, then posted graphic photos of their bodies on social media, warning he was going to carry out a school shooting. Once surrounded by the police, he committed suicide.

Police have revealed that the minor, William Quince Colburn III, posted “disturbing” photos of the murdered family. Among the victims are the teenager’s parents, William Colburn Jr., 63, Jana Colburn, 53, his 13-year-old sister Emma Colburn and their two pets.

Police officers have started investigating Colburn III after being alerted to disturbing images he posted to a group on social media last Wednesday, the Aransas Pass Police Department said in a statement. In the mail, Colburn III threatened to continue his violent raid on a school but did not say which one.

Finally, the police located the teenager on Wednesday evening in a trailer park near the Aransas pass. When asked to leave, he refused, so a negotiation began.

After a few minutes of shouting, authorities heard a gunshot and someone falling to the ground, police said. When the uniformed officers entered the camper van, they found Colburn III dead from a gunshot wound, along with the bodies of three other victims.

Another of the murdered couple’s daughters, Mahria Batts, learned the sad news the next morning as her mother celebrated her birthday.

“This morning we all got up to congratulate our mom on her 53rd birthday,” she revealed on a GoFundMe page. “But instead, we were devastated by news that broke our hearts,” he wrote. “As you can imagine, it’s difficult for us right now,” he said. “We are injured. We don’t understand it. We are lost. We are angry, ”he added.

San Patricio County Sheriff Oscar Rivera was grateful for the swift police action in this matter. “I’m glad we were able to find him before something worse happened,” Rivera said.

He said if it hadn’t been for the “quick action” of the social media team and the alerting of other teens in the group where the threat was made, “we might as well have been working on an even more tragic event this morning. “

The teenager was not enrolled in any local school and authorities believe he was home schooled. “I don’t know which school he was planning to attack, but he certainly had the weapons and ammunition to do it,” Rivera said.

When they found him, already dead, the teenager had at least two pistols and a rifle.
