ADAMS COUNTY, Colo. — The Adams County Sheriff's Office is investigating a shooting Saturday night in which a teen died and another was injured.

Deputies responded to a call for shots fired at 11:18 p.m. at Rotella Park, at 1824 Coronado Pkwy., according to the sheriff's office.

An initial investigation shows that a group of five to seven boys were in the park when a disturbance took place, a sheriff's office spokesperson said on Monday.

One person pulled out a gun, and two teens were shot. One was pronounced dead at the scene, and the other was shot in the leg. The injury is not believed to be life-threatening, the sheriff's office said.

Investigators on the case are encountering a lack of cooperation and consistency in their interviews, the sheriff's office spokesperson said. No suspects have been arrested.

Anyone with information about the shooting is asked to call the sheriff's office at 303-288-1535.
