Two Arvada Shootings Leave 3 Wounded; Suspects Caught After Camera-Tracked Pursuit

Police describe the later gunfire as an armed robbery turned carjacking.

Overview

  • Arvada police reported two separate Saturday evening shootings that injured three people in different locations.
  • At about 6:15 p.m. near The Russell apartments on West 56th Avenue, two men were shot during a disturbance and were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries.
  • Police said the suspect in the apartment-complex shooting was known to the victims and was arrested around 10:30 p.m.
  • Around 8:41 p.m. near West 54th Avenue and Harlan Street, outside a Colorado Bureau of Investigation office, a victim was shot multiple times and taken to a hospital, with a police spokesperson later describing the condition as stable.
  • Officers used FLOCK Safety cameras to locate the carjacked vehicle, pursued it onto westbound I-70, executed a PIT maneuver, and arrested fleeing occupants, with outlets reporting either two or three arrests as investigators withhold names and charges.
