WILDWOOD • The case of two men found fatally shot in the Babler State Park on Tuesday night is now being classified as a murder-suicide, St. Louis County police said Wednesday.

The victims are identified as Douglas Potter, 57, and his son, Joseph Potter, 20. They both lived in the 16800 block of Westglen Farms Drive in Wildwood.

The father killed the son, then fatally shot himself, said St. Louis County police spokesman Brian Schellman.

Police found a handgun at the scene. Schellman said police don't know a motive at this point and won't comment on whether any note was left behind.

Family was gathered at the home Wednesday afternoon. A woman who answered the door said the family is requesting privacy.

Rockwood School District spokeswoman Kim Cranston said Joseph Potter was a senior at Lafayette High School, where he had been enrolled last April. She declined to say why he was still attending classes as a 20-year-old.

Police in Wildwood received a call at about 5:15 p.m. Tuesday after two people walking in the park discovered the bodies. A vehicle that belonged to one of the men was found nearby.
