DENVER — One teen is dead and two others wounded in three separate shootings in Denver, Aurora and Lakewood Friday night and early Saturday morning.

A juvenile suspect was arrested in connection with the fatal Denver shooting.

The Denver shooting happened in the 3800 block of Walnut Street, near the city’s River North Art District (RiNo), according to a Denver police social media post.

The Denver Office of the Medical Examiner will release the victim’s identity at a later time.
