(Moab Utah)-

Two Moab teenagers have been charged as adults in 7th District Court in connection with the death of 33 yr old Gregorio Salazar Campos. His body was found Saturday along the Colorado River near the intersection of U.S. 191 and state Route 128. Campos was reported missing March 29 when his sister told police he did not show up for work.

Arrested over the weekend and charged as adults in the case are: Brody Blu Kruckenburg and Charles Anthony Nelson, both 16. Reportedly, Campos was shot but but full details of his death have not been released, pending an autopsie. Grand County Sheriff Steve White asked anyone with information about the case to contact the Grand County Sheriff's Office at 259-8115.

(Canyonlands National Park)- The bodies of a father and his adult son were found in an extremely remote part of the maze section of Canyonlands National Park over the weekend. Both had been shot, according to park officials. Investigators were trying to determine if the two died as a result of a murder-suicide or a double suicide. Garfield County and Park Service Authorities say that Saturday afternoon, a woman from Scottsdale, Ariz., called to report that her husband and father-in-law were overdue from a backpacking trip in the Maze area. After looking at their itinerary, park officials made their "best guess" on the route they took and found the men's bodies a couple of hours later in Lou's Spring. The Moab Sun Times reported the victims were Aarron Olvera, 40, and his father, Dennis Olvera, 65. Each suffered a single gunshot wound to the head, Henderson said. A weapon was recovered at the scene. Henderson said the area where the bodies were found is not easy to get to. "It's incredibly remote," he said, noting that the area is 65 miles away from the nearest paved road. "It's the most remote part of the park."
