New video captures deadly shooting at Denver park on Easter Sunday

DENVER (KDVR) — A new video captured several shots being fired in a deadly shooting in broad daylight at a Denver park on Easter Sunday.

On Sunday, around 6 p.m., the Denver Police Department said it responded to a shots-fired call in the area of the 3600 block of North Vine Street. This is at Russell Square Park in the Cole Neighborhood.

Police said two people were sent to the hospital, and they were still looking for a suspect. On Monday morning, police said a woman was pronounced dead, and they were still working on developing suspect information.

FOX31’s Jim Hooley spoke with neighbors in the area on Monday morning, who captured a video of the shots being fired. On a smart home camera in the area, it showed a video of the park, with the sound of over 20 gunshots.

Neighbors told Hooley there were more than 50 people, as many as 100, at the park celebrating Easter. Neighbors believe it was a drive-by shooting, and they all ran for cover once the shots were fired.

At this time, it’s unclear what led up to the shooting.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867.
