DENVER (CBS4)- Police in Denver arrested two suspects wanted in the Aug. 6 shooting that happened outside Coors Field. Police arrested Javon Price and Rayvell Powell in the shooting that happened about an hour after the game ended.
One person was killed and the surviving victim is continuing to recover from his injuries. The person shot and killed has been identified as Gregory Hopkins, 41. The cause of death is multiple gunshot wounds.
The shooting happened outside of the baseball stadium between 22nd and Blake Street and Gate A, about an hour after the Colorado Rockies game ended.
