An 81-year-old Englewood man accused of killing his wife and daughter with an axe on March 25 has been formally charged with two counts of murder.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — An 81-year-old Englewood man accused of killing his wife and daughter with an axe on March 25 has been charged with murder.

MacLaren was arrested on March 25 after he allegedly told police during an interview that he had recently lost his job and didn't have any money left. He regularly interacted with people experiencing homelessness and"knew what a miserable life that was," he said, according to his arrest affidavit. He said that morning, his wife and daughter were sitting on a couch and he struck both of them in the head with the axe, knocking them unconscious, the affidavit reads. He hit them multiple times, according to the affidavit, and knew he had killed them. He said their bodies wouldn't fit in the trash cans, so he used a saw to remove their arms and legs. The cans were too heavy and he could not move them, he said, according to the affidavit.
