Sixteen-year-old Kim Sanghyuk was shot and killed after leaving a warehouse party on Cherokee Street in Denver in the early morning hours of November 27, 2016. An honors student at Overland High School and a drummer in the school’s jazz program, Sanghyuk was described as kind, humble, and close with his parents and sister; his father had moved the family from South Korea a few years earlier.

According to police, a fight from the party spilled into the street and gunfire erupted; Denver officers responded to reports of shots fired about 12:09 a.m. and found Sanghyuk with a gunshot wound. He was taken to a hospital and later died. Classmates held a candlelight vigil to remember him.

As of May 2017 no arrests had been announced and no suspects publicly identified, leaving Sanghyuk’s family and community still seeking answers. If anyone was at the warehouse that night or has information about the shooting, please come forward.
