LAKEWOOD, Colo. — Lakewood Police (LPD) arrested two teenagers on suspicion of first-degree murder after a double homicide of two brothers in a Walmart parking lot on Aug. 23.
LPD detectives and U.S. Marshals with the Colorado Violent Offender Task Force arrested a 17-year-old male from Denver and a 16-year-old male was arrested in Commerce City.
Police said the shooting does not appear to be random and because the suspects are both juveniles, there is no other information to release.
On Aug. 23, agents with LPD responded to a parking lot at 7455 West Colfax Ave. and found two males with apparent gunshot wounds at 8:23 p.m., according to a release from Lakewood Police.
The two brothers killed in the parking lot shooting were 18-year-old Damian Wikoff and 17-year-old Dillon Wikoff.
