On the night of February 5, 2023, 17-year-old Caleb Ray ’Baby Ray’ Nickerson, a White male from Peyton, Colorado, was killed by gunfire in the Meridian Ranch neighborhood of Falcon. The shooting also killed 17-year-old Javier Antonio Gamboa Lopez and left several others wounded after numerous 911 calls reported multiple shots fired. The El Paso County Sheriff’s Office described a chaotic scene and investigators said witness reluctance hampered the early stages of the probe.

Caleb’s sister, Risma Nickerson, publicly pleaded for anyone with information to come forward and remembered him as a class clown with a contagious smile, believing he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. After an almost six-month investigation involving multiple jurisdictions, authorities announced arrests in early August 2023: six juveniles were taken into custody, and a 16-year-old male was charged with two counts of first-degree murder and numerous additional counts related to the shooting. The investigation was reported as ongoing.

Does anyone with knowledge of Caleb, the Meridian Ranch area that night, or witnesses who have not yet spoken want to share information?
