DENVER — Two men were shot and killed in separate incidents 13 minutes apart early Saturday morning in Denver.
The first shooting happened at 1:27 a.m. in the 300 block of 22nd Street in the Five Points neighborhood, near Benedict Fountain Park. The man who was shot died of his injuries, according to the Denver Police Department (DPD).
The Denver Medical Examiner's Office identified the victim as Mark Hill, 35, and said he died on the scene.
DPD said in a tweet that investigators were working to determine the circumstances of that shooting. They released the photo below of Hill Tuesday and asked anyone with information to come forward or contact Crime Stoppers to remain anonymous.
The second shooting, at 1:40 a.m., occurred on the off-ramp from southbound Interstate 25 to 20th Street, in the Highland neighborhood.
A spokesperson for DPD said the victim was apparently walking in the area and was not in a vehicle. The man was taken to Denver Health and died of his injuries, DPD said.
The coroner's office identified the victim as Angel De La Cruz Hernandez, 27.
Police did not share suspect information in either incident.
