Denver 7+ Colorado News Latest Headlines | December 6, 11am At the crime scene, detectives spoke with a witness who said Herrera-Lozano had locked his keys in the trunk of his car by accident and was looking for somebody with a slim jim to help him unlock the car, the affidavit reads. The witness said he told the teen that he was parked across the street and may have one. As the witness and Herrera-Lozano walked across the road, Herrera-Lozano stopped at a newer black vehicle.
Crime scene investigators found six 9mm fired cartridges in the street. An autopsy by the Denver Office of the Medical Examiner said that Herrera-Lozano had three gunshot wounds to his upper torso. His death was ruled a homicide, according to the affidavit. Using the National Integrated Ballistic Information Network , police were able to confirm the fired cartridges from the crime scene matched ones from a separate shooting on Pearl Street in Thornton from April 21. Police investigated the latter case as an illegal discharge of a firearm.
A few days later on July 1, police obtained a search warrant for that man's cell phone. During a second interview, the man said again that he had no involvement in the homicide, but then said he was at the skate park at the time of the murder. He told police his friend had been driving the rental car. The group then drove to Thornton, picked up two young females and a young male, and headed to the skate park, according to the affidavit.
