The Arapahoe County Coroner’s Office identified the 18-year-old man shot and killed at an Aurora house party last week.
Jesus Lam was shot and killed at a home in the 3600 block of South Andes Way around 1 a.m. May 18, according to a news release from the coroner’s office. The manner of death was classified as a homicide.
The Aurora Police Department initially responded to the home after reports of a shooting and found two men, including Lam, suffering from gunshot wounds, according to the police department.
Lam and a 19-year-old man were taken to a nearby hospital, where Lam later died from his injuries. The other man survived.
Preliminary investigations found that the shooting occurred after a fight broke out at a house party. One suspect then began firing shots.
As of Tuesday, the police department has not arrested any suspects in connection to the incident.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at (720) 913-7867.
