Before taking his own\u2064 life, the man left a chilling message on the bathroom wall.<\/p>\n<p>The man was identified as 20-year-old Diego Barajas Medina from\u2063 the nearby\u2063 community of Carbondale. He was\u2063 found armed with a rifle, a pistol, and multiple magazines for both weapons. Additionally, he was dressed in tactical gear, including body armor\u2064 and a helmet, and was in possession of homemade explosive devices.<\/p>\n<p>The Garfield County Sheriff&#8217;s Office \u2063revealed that Medina&#8217;s body was found in the women&#8217;s restroom where the disturbing message was written. The message read, &#8220;I\u200d am not a killer. I just wanted to get into the caves.&#8221; Although it\u2063 is unclear if Medina wrote the \u2064message himself, the incident has raised \u2064concerns about his motives for entering the amusement park.<\/p>\n<p>Despite some of his weapons being fake, \u2064authorities warned that Medina was still \u200dcapable of carrying out a violent attack. The Garfield \u2062County Sheriff&#8217;s Office stated, &#8220;Given the amount of weapons, ammunition, and explosive devices found, the suspect could have implemented an\u200d attack of devastating proportions upon the community and first responders.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">A man found dead inside Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park was heavily armed and \u201ccould have\u2062 implemented an attack of devastating proportions,\u201d the Garfield County Sheriff\u2019s Office said <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/M1eIJAPKrv\">https:\/\/t.co\/M1eIJAPKrv<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Denver7 \u2062News (@DenverChannel) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DenverChannel\/status\/1719060247174660530?\">October 30, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Following the incident, police conducted a search of Medina&#8217;s shared home and found no criminal record associated with him.
