Cops Baffled by Twins' Double Shooting at Colo. Shooting Range

Family members of two Australian twins shot at a Colorado gun range are travelling to the U.S. to determine which of the women is dead, after a mysterious double-shooting that has baffled investigators.

Both of them were shot in the head. One died instantly and the other was rushed to a hospital in critical condition where she has been unable to talk to investigators since the shooting Monday.

Police have been unable to determine which of the identical twins, 29, was killed or how the shootings occurred.

Police are unsure of who shot the gun, or guns, whether the women each shot themselves, shot each other, or if one shot her sister and then herself.

"We don't know what happened. Each new piece of information creates a new possibility," said Capt. Louie Perea, spokesman for the Arapahoe County Sheriff.

An Australian paper was saying yesterday it was a suicide pact. Sad.

predict teevee movie soon

australia seems like they'd have as lax of weapons regulations as the US - anyone know?

One of them was scheduled to to back the next day.

So sad what happened here. :(

They only issue permits to buy them under very limited circumstances, so you're left with the hassle of getting permits for bolt-action, pump-action, and break-action long guns.

I don't know if they have shooting ranges with pistol rentals in Australia, but if you're looking to put a gun in your hand quickly in the US and you can't buy one legally, then a pistol range is the way to go.

And quite tragic. You have to wonder what made them do it (assuming that it was a double suicide).

The double shooting of Australian twin sisters was a suicide pact, investigators said Thursday after interviewing the one who survived.

The Arapahoe County sheriff's office said the 29-year-old sisters had been in the Denver area for five weeks before going to a shooting range on Monday.

Of crack anti-gun martyr squads .

Nobody is -THAT- crazy !

What they did transcends thoughtless self centered ass hurtedness . Fuck them both .

who will mourn their passing (or one of their passings)

Local news has confirmed no charges will be filed because they each shot themselves

As they did the owners of the business they chose for their final selfish act .

CLIPPINGS about the Columbine school massacre were found in the luggage of twin sisters at the centre of a suicide pact.

The revelation came as the surviving twin refused to tell police why they shot themselves at a shooting range outside Denver.

Candice Hermeler suffered a bullet wound to her head while her twin Kristin died instantly.

Candice was "devastated, frustrated, distraught and angry" during a two-hour interview with police from her hospital bed.

"The surviving sister has confirmed that they had planned to commit suicide together, and did in fact shoot themselves," Captain Louie Perea told the Herald Sun.
