Littleton police are investigating the death of an 18-year-old who was shot near an apartment complex across from Promise Park last week.
The victim is David Moore and a member of his family posted on Facebook that they are working with police. The family is also planning a memorial service and plans to share more details soon.
Police responded to calls of shots fired near 293 W. Powers Place around 8:17 p.m. on April 4. There, they found Moore suffering from a gunshot wound to the abdomen. Officials attempted life-saving measures and Moore was transported to a local hospital, but pronounced dead.
The coroner, according to documents, has classified the death as a homicide. Police are looking for a dark-colored Acura TL sedan between 2009-2014 model years that they suspect could be connected to the incident.
Police spokesperson Sheera Poelman said the investigations division has been working “around the clock” since the shooting occurred to learn more.
Poelman encouraged people to share any information related to the incident with the police, even if they think it may not be helpful. She said the department has solved crimes from very small tips in the past.
Police ask anyone with information regarding the incident to call LPD at (303) 794-1551 or Crime Stoppers at (720) 913-7867.
