The 46-year-old golf pro was shot in the head on the green of the 10th hole after apparently stumbling upon a crime in progress, according to police. He was killed “because he witnessed an active crime taking place,” police said. There is no connection between Siller and the suspect, Fox said.
The two other victims — 76-year-old Paul Pierson of Kansas and 46-year-old Henry Valdez of California — were found in the bed of a white Ram 3500 pickup truck.
Police are trying to determine why the shootings happened and whether relationships existed between Rhoden and the victims, but they feel confident he had no relationship with the 46-year-old Siller.
Siller leaves behind a wife and two children, ages 6 and 7.
