Denver Police are investigating a shooting that killed a man and injured six others Sunday morning, local US media said.
Police said a call came in around 3:06 a.m. for a shooting at a strip mall located in the 5500 block of E. 33rd Avenue. That’s near the intersection with Hudson Street, east of downtown Denver in the Park Hill neighborhood.
Denver Police Commander Matt Clark said that the shooting happened at some sort of after-hours club called “Hells Lover’s Motorcycle Club.” The door had a sign reading “Private Club” on it. He said there was evidence of shots being fired outside the club, and investigators were working to find out what happened inside and what led to the shooting.
There was evidence of several guns being fired, Clark said.
The extent of the injuries suffered by the other six victims, who were all adults, was not immediately known. Clark said that several were in surgery for their injuries.
He also said that officers are investigating if any of the victims also fired gunshots.
Clark said that there is a history of crime on that block, including several homicides, but he was not able to answer questions on the club’s history specifically.
