Denver Police Department investigators work the scene of a mass shooting early Tuesday, June 13, 2023, in Denver.Crouching on the ground, the 58-year-old D’Angelo said his arms were shaking with nerves and he felt an asthma attack coming.
As officers started to move toward the gunfire, D’Angelo heard a female voice not a dozen feet away"screaming out in pain." Another victim lay just beyond the first, D’Angelo said, as officers rushed to provide care. The shooting ended after roughly 20 seconds, he said after consulting his footage, which he has handed over to law enforcement.
