AURORA, Colo. — The Aurora Police Department (APD) is investigating two separate shootings of teenagers Saturday.
APD said the first one was reported at 3:20 p.m. at Montview Park at East 19th Avenue and Chester Street.
It was initially reported as shots fired, police said, but no victim was found at first. Later, police said a 15 or 16-year-old boy was dropped off at an Aurora hospital with a gunshot wound to the leg. Police believe he was the one who was shot at Montview Park.
At 8:15 p.m., APD said a 16-year-old boy was dropped off at a hospital with a gunshot wound to the chest.
Police said that shooting happened either at Village Green Park at South Chambers Circle and East Louisiana Drive or at a nearby home.
A spokesperson for APD said the people involved have been "less than cooperative" with their investigation and have provided very little information about the incident.
APD said there is no information to connect the two shootings.
