The bodies of two Arizona teenagers, Pandora Kjolsrud, 18, and Evan Clark, 17, were found with gunshot wounds in Tonto National Forest on May 27. Police are treating their deaths as homicides.
The teens, both Arcadia High School students, had gone camping over Memorial Day weekend. When family members didn’t hear from them, they became concerned. Their bodies were found near Mount Ord, a remote area with no developed campsites.
Authorities believe they were killed on May 26, and say foul play is suspected. GoFundMe pages have been launched for both families.
Evan’s mother, Sandra Sweeney, described him as a kind, old soul who was “funny, bright, and loving.” Pandora’s memorial page remembers her as joyful, compassionate, and deeply loved by those around her.
