LITTLETON, Colorado (CNN) -- A possible suicide note, written by one of the suspects in the Columbine High School massacre, has been found, CNN has learned. The discovery came to light on Thursday just as authorities announced that two "large, propane tank bombs" were found inside the building.

In a separate development, school officials announced on Thursday that the suburban Denver high school would be closed indefinitely.

Two sources told CNN the "final note" was written by one or both of the two outcasts who massacred 12 school mates and a teacher before taking their own lives on Tuesday. Sources did not say where the note was found.

According to sources, the note said, in essence, that Eric Harris, 18, and Dylan Klebold, 17, acted alone and had no accomplices. "This is the way we want to go out," the note reportedly said.
