DENVER — A 14-year-old boy accused of shooting and killing a man outside Federales Denver last week has been arrested in Wyoming, the Denver Police Department (DPD) announced on Wednesday.
After "extensive investigative efforts," DPD's fugitive unit investigators determined that suspect Steven "Echo" Marquez, 14, was in Casper, Wyoming. He was arrested there on Tuesday evening with assistance from the FBI Safe Streets Task Force and Casper Police Department, DPD said.
Marquez is accused of killing Todd Kidd on July 10 around 6:40 p.m. outside Federales Denver, a bar and restaurant at 29th and Larimer streets in the RiNo Arts District, DPD said. Their investigation found that Kidd, a bouncer at the bar, intervened in a disturbance and Marquez then allegedly shot him.
