AURORA, Colo. — A 63-year-old man has died after being shot near East 16th Avenue and Lansing Street in Aurora.
At about 11 p.m. on Tuesday, the Aurora Police Department (APD) was called to the scene and found a man lying in the roadway, who had been shot. The man was transported to the hospital where he later died.
In an update, APD said the man had died from his injuries and the shooting is being investigated as a homicide.
A white truck was found near the scene that had been involved in a crash, APD said in a release. The truck was stolen and unoccupied, police said.
