Denver police offering reward for 2014 homicide information

The Denver Police Department is still searching for information on a homicide that occurred nearly 11 years ago.

The department is offering up to $2,000 to tipsters able to provide information regarding the murder of 33-year-old Toshio Gilmore that occurred on Dec. 31, 2014, according to a Monday news release.

Gilmore, a father of three, was found shot to death on a couch outside the Renaissance at Lowry Boulevard apartments at 550 Alton Way — near the Sunny Vale neighborhood — around 5 a.m. that day.

The case has remained cold since.

In a 2022 press conference, Denver Police Chief Ron Thomas said: “There is evidence Mr. Gilmore was shot in the area in which he was found deceased. Numerous residents were interviewed but it is unclear what time the shooting occurred since there were no reports of gunfire or a disturbance in the area.”

Gilmore left behind three children, two sons and a daughter. His youngest son was only an infant when he died.

“They were quite young when this happened,” said Vince Gilmore, the victim’s father. “They don’t remember a whole lot. They ask, ‘How was my dad? What kind of man was he?’ And we always tell them, you had a great dad.”

Those with information are asked to contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at (720) 913-7867.
