1 dead, 1 injured in overnight shooting at Aurora apartment complex

One man was killed and another was seriously injured Friday during an early morning shooting according to Aurora police.

Aurora police officers responded to reports of a shooting at the Abrigo apartment complex — located at 12170 East 30th Ave. — around 12:15 a.m. Friday, according to a news release from the department.

When officers arrived at the apartment building — located near Peoria Street and down the road from Park Lane Elementary School — they found two men with gunshot wounds, the release stated.

Paramedics transported both men to the hospital, where one later died from his injuries, police said. The other man remains hospitalized.

Police originally suspected the two men had shot each other, but further investigation revealed that two unidentified suspects came into the apartment and fired multiple shots at both men, according to a 6:45 a.m. update.
