DENVER (KDVR) -- Aurora police have arrested an 18-year-old in connection to a Saturday evening shooting involving a vehicle that had three children in it.
Police released new details Sunday morning about what led up to the shooting and also updated information about the victims' injuries. A man and woman in the vehicle were injured, and one of the children police had initially said was uninjured actually did suffer a "superficial graze wound."
Police in a press release said the shooting happened at about 7:20 p.m. on Saturday. The man and woman, along with the three children, were in Aurora to meet people for a "suspected transaction," but the suspects took the items and left without paying, police said.
"When the suspects took the items without paying and fled, the victims began following them," police said. "While traveling southbound on Airport Boulevard near E. Colfax Avenue, someone in the suspect vehicle opened fire, striking the man and woman."
The man and woman waved down medical personnel near Alameda Parkway and Chambers Boulevard. The man had serious injuries, and the woman had minor injuries, police said.
All three children and both adults were taken to a hospital, though police said only one of the children, a 12-year-old, had been injured.
Christopher Campos-Anguiano, 18, was arrested later that night after police located the suspect vehicle, a GMC Acadia. Campos Anguiano was booked into the Aurora Detention Center for five counts of attempted second-degree murder and will be formally charged by the 17th Judicial District Attorney’s Office.
