DENVER — A third suspect has been arrested in connection with a shooting last month in west Denver that left one man dead, according to the Denver Police Department (DPD).

The shooting happened on March 20 on South Zenobia Street. The victim was taken to the hospital, where he died on March 23. He has been identified as 28-year-old Frankie Sanchez.
