Edward Eddie Armijo Preciado was 15 when a night out in Denver turned deadly on October 5, 2022. After visiting an arcade and getting food with his girlfriend, the teens got off a bus and Eddie walked the girlfriend and her sister home near 31st Avenue and Downing Street. Shots were fired and Preciado reportedly shielded the two young women from gunfire. He was struck eight times; his girlfriend suffered a gunshot wound to her foot.

Rushed to a nearby hospital, Eddie died three days later. His family believes he was specifically targeted. Denver police said they had very little information to go on and appealed to the public for leads. Over a year after the shooting, no suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been announced.

Did anyone in the neighborhood see or hear anything that night, or did anyone have contact with Eddie in the hours before the shooting?
