On the late evening of November 5, 2008, gunfire near the intersection of East 7th Avenue and Elm Street in Denver left two young men shot. Seventeen-year-old Irvin Herrera-Gonzales, a White male, was found with gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene. Another teen, Agustin Puente-Yanez, was critically wounded and died the following day at Denver Health Medical Center.

Both deaths were classified as homicide and investigators opened a double-murder investigation. Despite appeals for information and pursued leads over the years, no arrests have been announced and no suspects have been publicly identified. The motive and circumstances leading up to the shooting have not been made clear.

If anyone in the neighborhood that night or with information about Irvin Herrera-Gonzales or Agustin Puente-Yanez can help, please come forward to the Denver Police Department.
