A 15-year-old has been charged with first-degree murder in connection with a homicide in Brighton last week.
The teen, who was not named because they are a minor, also faces charges of first-degree aggravated motor vehicle theft and possession of a handgun by a juvenile, the 17th Judicial District Attorney’s Office said in a news release.
Brighton police on March 28 went to check on a man in the 400 block of North 6th Avenue. There they found 44-year-old Joseph Johnson dead from apparent gunshot wounds.
The 15-year-old was arrested in Castle Rock later Tuesday.
Since the suspect is a minor, a judge will determine if the case will be transferred to district court or remain in juvenile court.
