When they arrived at the scene, officers found two injured men. Both were transported to a hospital — one with life-threatening injuries and the other with serious injuries, according to APD.

Initially, Aurora police said they thought the two men may have shot each other, but they later said that was not accurate. In a 6:45 a.m. update, police said two unidentified suspects came to an apartment and shot both of the men.

As of 6:50 a.m., police have not arrested anybody. No other details are available.
