A confrontation that began with a hostile look ended in gunfire in Denver’s Villa Park neighborhood on May 30, 2018. According to the surviving passenger, 16-year-old Rosando Anthony Martinez, 25-year-old Raymond Flores, and the witness were in a Ford Explorer when they passed two males who gave them a mean mug. The three turned the Explorer around to confront the men, and an argument followed in the Kimbo Grocery parking lot on the 600 block of Perry Street.

The passenger says the driver and two occupants of the Explorer threatened one of the men, identified as Angel Gallegos, with a can of bear spray. The passenger reports Gallegos then opened fire on the three before fleeing. Police found the running Explorer with its doors open and a can of bear spray at the scene. Martinez and Flores were taken to Denver Health Medical Center and later died; the medical examiner ruled both deaths homicides. A 15-year-old survivor was critically injured.

Did anyone in the Villa Park area see the Ford Explorer or the events in the Kimbo Grocery parking lot that night?
