On the night of January 4, 2014, a dispute over a pool game at the Hoffbrau Grill in Westminster led to a fatal shooting in Arvada. After an argument, 23-year-old Igor Skorev and his companion, 23-year-old Maksim Khamov, left in a silver Audi and were chased by four people from the bar in a red Hyundai. Skorev leaned out of the Audi’s passenger window and fired a black semi-automatic handgun, striking the Hyundai’s left rear tire. The Hyundai occupants reported the shooting to police.

Officers later located the Audi; when it accelerated toward an officer two officers fired at the vehicle. A high-speed chase followed and was terminated for safety after the Audi reached about 100 mph. The car was later found parked in an apartment lot. Skorev was found dead in the front passenger seat from multiple gunshot wounds including a wound under his left arm that entered his chest, a wound to his left knee, and a fatal gunshot to the head. Khamov, in the driver’s seat with non-gunshot injuries, was taken into custody and later convicted on multiple counts related to the incident and sentenced to 72 years.

The officers were placed on paid leave during the investigation; the district attorney later determined their use of force did not warrant criminal charges. If anyone knew Igor Skorev or witnessed the events that night, what information can be shared with investigators?
