A construction site manager on Sunday shot and killed two unauthorized people inside a southwest Denver construction site who were possibly burglarizing the location, according to the Denver Police Department.
The Denver Police Department just after 2:30 p.m. Sunday on X reported the shooting in the 8500 block of West Belleview Avenue in the Marston neighborhood.
Responding officers found two people who had been shot. One of them, a man, died at the scene, and a woman was taken to a hospital and died there, according to the police department news release.
The location is a construction site, and police believe the site manager arrived at the location and found the two people inside, possibly burglarizing the location, according to the news release. A “confrontation” between the two people and the site manager happened, and the site manager was assaulted.
The site manager then pulled out a firearm and shot both people.
He remained at the scene and is cooperating with the investigation, according to the news release. No one has been arrested.
