David Rosenthal, 58, was shot and killed during a carjacking in the early morning hours of February 22, 2019, in the 1500 block of Perry Street in Denver. He was working as an Uber driver when he was shot multiple times and his black Cadillac was taken.

Authorities say the killing was tied to a multi-state crime spree that began in Colorado Springs and continued through Colorado, Wyoming and Utah. Two men, identified as Matthew Fanelli, then 30, and Jose Lopez-Jovel, were accused of using Rosenthal’s stolen vehicle in a convenience store robbery in Cheyenne and a bank robbery near Park City. The suspects were arrested in Oregon after a pursuit during which the driver allegedly fired at officers; after crashing, the driver allegedly shot a man and assaulted a woman while attempting another carjacking.

Friends and family described Rosenthal as a kind, generous father, son, husband and brother. Anyone with information about the Denver carjacking that cost David Rosenthal his life is asked to come forward.
