DENVER (KDVR) — Aurora Police are investigating a crash and a double shooting that killed one man late Thursday night.

The Aurora Police Department said officers were initially called to a crash in the 13600 block of East Bates Avenue at about 10:50 p.m. The area is northeast of the Cherry Creek Reservoir.

Once officers got to the scene, they found two men inside a car suffering from gunshot wounds.

APD said the 21-year-old driver died at the scene while the passenger, a 47-year-old man, was taken to a local hospital for treatment. Police said the man is in police custody while at the hospital.
