2 teens arrested in connection with deadly shooting near mosque in Aurora

Two 19-year-olds have been arrested in connection with a deadly shooting in Aurora. The shooting happened near Crescent View Academy and a mosque inside the school in the 10800 block of East Bethany Drive about 9:45 p.m. Tuesday. 

When officers arrived, they found a 23-year-old Aurora man, later identified as Yousef El Naffar, with an apparent gunshot wound. Elnaffar was rushed to the hospital where he later died. 

Isaac Delacruz was arrested late Thursday night on first-degree murder charges. Investigators said they believe he was the shooter. 

Kevin Hernandez-Gonzalez faces second-degree murder charges as investigators believe he was an accomplice and driver. 

Both are being investigated for additional robberies in the area. 

Investigators believe Elnaffar was at the mosque for evening prayers before he left to conduct a transaction through an online marketplace when he was shot and killed.
