AURORA, Colo. — The Aurora Police Department (APD) said it was investigating a suspicious death Sunday morning at Landon Park Apartments.

APD said that the victim, a man, was found dead about 8:30 a.m. in an apartment at 6 S. Sable Blvd., near the intersection of Sable and East Ellsworth Avenue.

According to the preliminary investigation, a neighbor heard a gunshot about 2 a.m. Sunday. When the neighbor checked on the resident a few hours later, she found him slumped over and called police, according to an APD press release.

Earlier Sunday, an APD spokesperson said the victim had been shot. APD was on scene investigating and said no suspect information was available.

The victim's name, and cause and manner of death, will be released later by the Arapahoe County Coroner's Office.
