Investigators on Tuesday continued to search for suspects in Monday’s mass shooting that left six teenagers wounded in a park next to Aurora Central High School.
The Aurora Police Department released photos of two black vehicles believed to be involved in the shooting, and a reward of $7,000 is being offered for any information that leads to an arrest.
The vehicles are described as a black Chrysler 300 with dark tint and chrome wheels and a black Chevy Tahoe with chrome door handles and a roof rack, police said.
Investigators have not yet made any arrests or identified suspects, police said. Previously, police said the shooters opened fire on a group of teenagers at Nome Park at Peoria Street and East 13th Avenue.
All six of the victims were students at Aurora Central High School. The victims include four males, ages 14, 16, 17 and 18 and two females, ages 15 and 16, police said.
The victims all suffered non life-threatening injuries and are expected to survive. Three of the victims had been released from the hospital as of Tuesday afternoon, police said. One boy required emergency surgery but was in stable condition Tuesday.
“I need all of us to be outraged by what happened here today,” Aurora Police Chief Vanessa Wilson said during a news conference Monday. “There’s a violence crisis across the nation right now. … Enough is enough.”
Wilson said some of the gunshots came from a vehicle driving by, but police believe another shooter may have been on foot. Police found various shell casings of different calibers at the scene.
It is not yet known whether the suspects are also students at Aurora Central High School.
All six victims were near each other when they were shot, but police do not know if the group was targeted. Wilson said Aurora and Denver’s gang units are investigating the shooting, but it is unclear whether the incident was gang related.
Police are asking anyone with information about Monday’s shooting to come forward immediately, including neighbors who may have surveillance footage of the suspects involved.
“Any information you have, no matter how small, we need it,” Wilson said. “Please.”
Anyone with information is asked to call Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867. Tipsters can be anonymous and are eligible for the $7,000 reward.
