GREELEY, Colo. – Police are looking for up to six people wanted in connection with a shooting that left a man dead in Greeley overnight.

Greeley Police Department officers responded to reports of a possible shooting at an apartment complex near the intersection of 26th Avenue and W. 13th St. at around 12:40 a.m. Saturday.

Arriving officers found a man who had sustained a gunshot wound to the chest. He was immediately taken to North Colorado Medical Center, but was pronounced deceased at about 1:15 a.m., Sgt. J.P. Tymkowych of the Greeley Police Department said in a press release.

Witnesses told police that “some sort of dispute” was heard near the entrance to the apartment complex and, during the disturbance, the victim was shot.
