AURORA, Colo. — An 11-year-old boy who was shot multiple times on Sunday night was expected to make a full recovery, according to the Aurora Police Department (APD).
The boy "certainly had guardian angels watching over him," APD said in a Tweet on Monday morning. Police asked for the public's help in finding two suspects in the shooting.
The shooting happened about 8 p.m. on East Kansas Drive, APD said. That was near the intersection of East Mississippi Avenue and South Troy Street. The circumstances of the shooting were under investigation, according to APD.
APD asks that anyone with information contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867 or visit metrodenvercrimestoppers.com. Tipsters can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a reward of up to $2,000.
