DENVER — Shots fired into a moving vehicle hit two people early Sunday on Colorado Boulevard near East 1st Avenue, according to police.
Three people were in the vehicle driving south on Colorado Boulevard when another vehicle going the same direction fired at them, according to the Denver Police Department (DPD).
Two of the three occupants were hit by the gunfire, and they drove themselves to a hospital. DPD received a report on the shooting about 3 a.m., said a DPD spokesperson. On Monday, DPD said that the victims' injuries were not life-threatening.
DPD was investigating the circumstances that led to the shooting. There appeared to be an altercation between the occupants of the vehicles before shots were fired, a DPD spokesperson said Monday.
On Sunday morning, Colorado Boulevard was closed at East 3rd Avenue so investigators could look for evidence.
No one was arrested, and no suspect information was available.
Anyone with information on the shooting can contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867 or metrodenvercrimestoppers.com. Tipsters can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a reward of up to $2,000.
