AURORA | An unidentified man was shot in the leg Saturday night during what police described as a “massive fight” in the parking lot of an East Colfax hotel in Aurora.
Police were called to the Holiday Inn hotel at 14200 E. Colfax Ave. at about 10:15 after reports of a shooting in the parking lot.
“Once on scene, they were met with a chaotic crowd of teenagers who had just been involved in a massive fight in the parking lot,” according to Aurora police spokesperson Agent Matt Longshore.
At some point during the melee, a man was shot in the leg, police said.
“Officers applied a tourniquet and he was taken to the hospital with serious injuries,” Longshore said.
Three unidentified teenagers were also hurt during the donnybrook and were taken to hospitals for non-gunshot-related injuries.
“Officers and Investigators are still trying to determine what led up to the fight and subsequent shooting, who was involved and their exact involvement,” Longshore said.
Investigators are reviewing hotel security footage and interviewing witnesses.
No arrests have been made.
