At least 10 people were wounded in a mass shooting early Tuesday in Denver
in an area where basketball fans had been celebrating the Nuggets' first
NBA title win, police said.
Police said the shooting was likely sparked by a drug deal gone wrong. It
left 10 people wounded, including one of two suspected shooters. Police
Chief Ron Thomas said Tuesday that all of the injured are expected to
survive. That includes five or six people police believe were bystanders
not involved in the drug deal.
The gunfire broke out around 12:30 a.m. -- about 3½ hours after the game.
Police said 20 rounds were fired at the scene, roughly a mile from Ball
Arena, where the Nuggets defeated the Miami Heat on Monday night.
The wounded suspect, a man, has been taken into custody by the Denver
Police Department.
"As far as what led up to this altercation that resulted in the shots
being fired, that's still under investigation at this time," police
spokesperson Doug Schepman said. "It did occur in the area where we had
the largest gathering of folks celebrating during the night."
Yellow police tape sealed off the area overnight Tuesday as investigators
scoured the scene, which was dotted with evidence markers and what
appeared to be detritus left over from the celebrations, including an
electric scooter and a green rental bike.
A small crowd was in the area at the time of the shooting, Schepman said,
but had "diminished quite a bit at that point." Schepman said the shooting
was in a spot where a lot of people might have come out of bars after the
game.
Police were interviewing witnesses, and Schepman described the ongoing
investigation as "expansive."
Eight people were hospitalized at Denver Health Medical Center -- one in
critical condition, one in fair and six in good condition, spokesperson
Heather Burke said. She said questions about the two additional wounded
people should be directed to police.
Schepman said police had beefed up their presence in the area in advance
of the celebration.
"We had a lot of officers in that immediate area of 20th and Market when
the shooting occurred, which is why the response to it was so quick," he
said.
The city has set a celebratory parade in downtown Denver for Thursday
morning.
