Texas teen kills family, dogs and posts it on social media before suicide, police say
William Quince Colburn III’s final social media post were the images of his dead family and a threat to commit further violence on a school in south Texas, according to the Aransas Pass Police Department.
Hours later, on Wednesday evening, when authorities tracked the teen to an Ingleside RV, the 15-year-old fatally shot himself. Officials say they recovered the bodies of his three family members and two dogs inside the RV.
The investigation was conducted by multiple Ingleside and Aransas Pass agencies and is ongoing, San Patricio County Sheriff Oscar Rivera said in a Facebook post.
Among the dead were William Colburn Jr., 63, and Janna Colburn, 53 and Emma Colburn, 13.
Late Wednesday, Aransas Pass police began an investigation into threats made by a teenager later identified as Quince Colburn III on social media.
Police said his post contained graphic images of dead people who he identified as his family. He said he had killed them, police said.
The sheriff’s office was investigating a separate complaint shared via the Texas Department of Public Safety.
Officials tracked Quince Colburn III to an RV he was living in at the Aransas Oaks RV Resort in Ingleside. Officers asked him to step outside and he refused.
“The officers heard a single gunshot and the thud of a person falling to the ground,” according to an Aransas Police Pass Police Department news release. “Entry was made into the RV and immediately discovered the graphic scene shared over social media.”
