The Commerce City Police Department on Friday identified 37-year-old Jharman Lee Smith as the suspect in the shooting death of another man last month.
Smith uses the moniker "Snatch 'Em," the department noted.
CCPD officers found a man suffering from gunshot wounds in the 5400 block of E. 67th Avenue the night of March 19. The deceased man's identity has not been released by CCPD or the Adams-Broomfield Counties Coroner's Office.
CCPD issued a warrant Friday for Smith's arrest on felony murder and burglary charges.
