3 people found dead in Douglas County are identified

The bodies were found at separate locations in Parker and Douglas County Thursday morning.

DOUGLAS COUNTY, Colo. — The identities of three people found dead Thursday in Douglas County were released this week.

On Tuesday, the Douglas County Coroner's Office said Brandon Timms, 38, was found dead off a trail near the Rueter-Hess Incline, near Ancestry Drive in unincorporated Douglas County, a little before 9 a.m. Thursday.

A boy's body was also found with Timms. The coroner's office did not release the boy's name. 

On Tuesday, the principal of Frontier Valley Elementary School in Douglas County sent an email to families saying one of their students, Dane Timms, recently died. 

Investigators with the Douglas County Sheriff's Office found information at that scene that led them to ask Parker Police at 10:15 a.m. to conduct a welfare check at a home on Blackwolf Drive. Parker Police entered the home and found 43-year-old Angel Meyers dead.

The coroner's office did not release causes of death for any of the people involved, and law enforcement has not disclosed information on the circumstances of their deaths.

The officers also noticed a gas leak in the home and evacuated homes in the immediate area. South Metro Fire Rescue assisted with shutting off the gas leak, police said.

Residents were allowed back in their homes after the leak had been shut off.
