An Aurora, Colorado, teenage girl was fatally shot during a home invasion, and three suspects are now in custody.

According to CBS News, Aurora police responded to a call just after 6 a.m. on Tuesday at an apartment in the 10600 block of East Jewell Avenue in west Aurora. There, officers found 16-year-old Audrina Arrington suffering from a gunshot wound. She was transported to a local hospital, where she was later pronounced dead.

Police have arrested three suspects in connection with Arrington’s death and the home invasion.

April Chevon Collingwood, 44, of Aurora, was arrested on Wednesday. She is charged with complicity to commit second-degree murder, first-degree burglary, and attempted aggravated robbery.

The Aurora Police Department’s fugitive unit and the Denver Police Metro SWAT Team arrested Cooper Miller, 35, of Aurora, on Thursday. Miller is charged with second-degree murder, first-degree burglary, and attempted aggravated robbery.

David Gunion, 51, of Aurora, was arrested on Friday by Aurora police patrol officers, the fugitive unit, and SWAT. Gunion also faces charges of second-degree murder, first-degree burglary, and attempted aggravated robbery.

9News reports that the suspects were initially at the apartment to recover stolen motorcycles and tools that a woman claimed were taken from her and could be found at that location, according to the arrest affidavit.

The affidavit states that at the apartment, the armed men confronted Arrington’s father, who grabbed his gun. The men exchanged gunfire, resulting in a shot that fatally injured Arrington.

At the time of her death, Arrington was at the apartment visiting her father.

Both Miller and Gunion are believed to be the armed suspects who entered the apartment.

Detectives later discovered evidence suggesting that Collingwood’s involvement included planning and recruiting Miller and Gunion.

This is an active and ongoing investigation. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-STOP (7867). Tipsters can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a reward of up to $2,000.
