DENVER — The three homeless people found dead near the Broadway light rail station Thursday morning had been fatally shot, according to a news release from the Denver Office of the Medical Examiner.
The victims have been identified as Christopher Zamudio, 45, Nicole Boston, 28, and Jerome Coronado, 39, according to the release.
The Denver Police Department released photos of the victims on Tuesday afternoon, and said they are offering a $2,000 reward for information about a suspect in their murders.
No suspects have been taken into custody since a passerby saw the three victims’ bodies right across from the Regional Transportation District (RTD) Park and Ride at around 11 a.m. Thursday.
Denver Police Department (DPD) Division Chief Joe Montoya said last week that they were investigating to see if their deaths were related to a stabbing that occurred nearby earlier that morning. Tuesday, the department said they no longer believe there's a connection.
In the wake of the stabbing and triple homicide, Montoya said police are increasing patrols in the area, as well as outreach to the homeless community.
Anyone with information about the victims or suspects is asked to call the Denver Police Department. Anonymous tips can be submitted to Crime Stoppers via 720-913-STOP.
