Denver 13-Year-Old Boy Accused in Fatal Shooting of 60-Year-Old Man Whose Leg Blocked Bus Aisle
2024-02-04
So many questions: Is the boy known to be “troubled” or from a broken home, is anyone involved illegal, in a gang, wants to be in a gang, did the people know each other, did anyone of them have a beef with any of the others, etc.
[Breitbart] Police have arrested a 13-year-old boy in connection with a deadly shooting on an RTD bus on January 27 in Denver, Colorado.

The shooting incident occurred near South Federal Boulevard and West Mississippi Avenue, 9 News reported Friday, noting there were two victims, one of whom died.

A man identified as Richard Sanchez, 60, was transported to a hospital suffering from gunshot wounds and eventually died. Another individual suffered a minor injury and was cleared at the scene and released.

The outlet continued:

Investigators believe the incident began as an argument between the suspect and Sanchez about Sanchez’s leg blocking the aisle, which ended with the suspect shooting Sanchez, according to police.

The suspect was taken into custody Thursday night on suspicion of first-degree murder. The Denver District Attorney’s Office will make the final determination on the potential filing of any charges.

An image shows the deceased man who is described as being a grandfather, per the New York Post:

The suspect’s identity has not been released because he is a juvenile, the 9 News article said.

In addition, video footage shows the bus parked in the middle of an intersection with officials gathered at the scene.

In December, Breitbart News reported Denver Mayor Mike Johnston’s (D) car was stolen a second time but it was eventually recovered.

The outlet noted the incident happened as crime plagued the city.

“According to NIBRS crime data, there have been 6,110 instances of violent crime — 607 sexual assaults, 1,099 robberies, 76 murders, and 4,328 aggravated assaults — in the city year-to-date. That represents a 5.58 percent increase from the three-year average of violent crime alone,” the outlet said.

“There have also been 36,580 instances of property crime in the city, including 11,015 instances of auto theft year-to-date,” it added.

#6  A Google Earth map of the immediate area shows A Denver Housing Authority office, a Halfway-House, Hispanic surnamed Day-Care and a large number of Vietnamese and Hispanic named businesses. So by inference it may be a minority on minority event, and thus quickly disappears. News that doesn't fit the MSNBC copy-book, race-based narrative has a very short shelf-life.

#1  Long past those 50s when juvie crimes where largely minor. Now they're full scale adult felonies and the Karens are far more concerned about the perps than any justice for the real victims.
