AURORA | An unidentified man was critically injured by gunfire late Friday and was found bleeding in the parking lot of a west-Aurora condo complex by residents there.
Police were called to Edenbrook condos at 384 S. Ironton St. at about 11:30 p.m. after reports by residents of gunfire.
Unidentified residents in the complex went into the parking lot to investigate, police said in a statement.
“That is when they located the man and drove him to the hospital,” Aurora police spokesperson Matthew Longshore said in a statement. “Circumstances leading up to the shooting are not known and the victim remains hospitalized with life-threatening injuries.”
Police said anyone with information can call Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867. Tipsters can remain anonymous and still be eligible for a reward of up to $2,000, police said.
Call 9-1-1 to get EMS to immediately start lifesaving treatment.
Far better than losing time driving a bleeding person to a hospital and surprising medical personnel withe victim. Inbound ambulance crews alert ER personnel what the patient’s injuries are so the ER is already set up and prepared for that patient.
