DENVER – Four out of five suspects wanted in connection with a crime spree and homicide late Tuesday night have been arrested, the Denver Police Department announced Thursday afternoon.
The police department said Isaiah Freeman, 18, Seth Larhode, 21, Aden Sides, 18, and Noah Loepp-Hall, 19, were arrested Wednesday and booked in the downtown detention center.
They are being held for investigation on charges including first-degree murder, first-degree burglary, menacing, first-degree auto theft and first-degree assault, according to the department and court records.
Police also said they had identified the fifth suspect and were working to find him as of 1 p.m.
The police department has scheduled a news conference for 2:30 p.m. to discuss the arrests.
“We continue to send our condolences to those who were impacted by these terrible crimes,” said Denver Police Chief Paul Pazen. “The suspects were taken into custody after Denver Police investigators, members of our Crime Lab, the Denver District Attorney’s Office, and local and federal partners worked tirelessly during the past 36 hours to identify and arrest these suspects.”
Police said during a news conference Wednesday that preliminary investigation shows the victim in this shooting, identified as 18-year-old Shmuel Silverberg, was walking out of the school when the suspects approached him and began firing.
We need to get this out there and publicize all over, Jews being the only ‘ethnic group’ where a crime against us is no news!
That’s not true. It’s not news because the suspects are black and the press has been instructed by industry ‘fact checking’ oversight entities to minimize reporting on these crimes. It’s why there are no pictures of suspects either.
You have no evidence the suspects are black. Search Facebook for their names, match the location and you can see for yourself that your assumption is not likely to be true.
This is a horrific tragedy. Respond with light, not darkness. Give tzedakah, do a mitzvah.
DO a google search. They’re not black. Denver news stations are obviously covering this story. No, it’s not a national story because unfortunately shootings happen all the time all over the country. Why are we always looking to blame the media for not getting enough attention.
Seth, Noah, Aden, Isaiah… all Biblical names. Were these Yidden? Is this gang related? So tragic…
A little fact checking in order?
The suspects have prior arrest records, Commander Matt Clark said, and knew each other through the Lookout Mountain Youth Services facility. One suspect had disengaged an ankle monitor and another suspect is wanted for a jail escape.
If the Menhel was trained and armed… Jewish lives are saved
enoiugh with this discomfort of Yiddin being strong and able to defend ourselves. get comfortable with a GUN. The rebbe and Freidiker rebbe had a gun
They are Caucasian and not black. Be careful with assumptions and stories. It doesn’t make news because Jewish lives don’t matter-not to the media etc.unless noise is made by us nobody will call it a hate crime.
