Three people were injured Saturday night in two separate Arvada shootings, including one on the edge of Olde Town, according to the police department.
Arvada officers responded to a shooting near West 54th Avenue and Harlan Street, outside the Colorado Bureau of Investigation office, at 8:41 p.m. Saturday, according to a news release from the police department.
The unidentified victim was shot multiple times during what police believe was an armed robbery and carjacking, investigators said in the release.
Paramedics took the victim to the hospital in unknown condition, police said. An update was not available on Sunday.
Officers were able to locate the stolen vehicle using Flock-brand cameras across Arvada and chased it onto westbound Interstate 70.
Three suspects fled from the car on foot when officers forced it to a stop, but they were quickly arrested, Arvada police said. Police did not release suspect information or the charges under investigation.
Earlier that evening, at about 6:15 p.m., two men were shot near The Russell, an apartment building on the south edge of Olde Town Arvada, police said.
Investigators believe a disturbance outside the building at 7295 West 56th Ave. escalated into a fight and shots were fired, police said.
Paramedics took both victims to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, according to the police department. The suspect, whom police said the victims knew, was arrested at about 10:30 p.m. Saturday.
