GREELEY, Colo. — A 16-year-old boy died after he was found with serious injuries early Thursday morning, the Greeley Police Department (GPD) said.
At about 1:15 a.m. on July 21 officers with GPD were dispatched to a home in the 300 block of North 31st Avenue to assist with a medical call.
When they arrived they found the teen with serious injuries. He was taken to the hospital and later died, GPD said. Police did not say what type of injuries the teen had but did indicate his death was being investigated as a homicide.
His name and cause of death will be released at a later time by the Weld County coroner's office.
