In the afternoon of September 22, 2015, tragedy struck at a local convenience store in Denver, Colorado, claiming the life of 28-year-old Sergio Crandon Evelyn-Moe, a Black / African American male. The incident unfolded at Jenny's Market, where gunfire erupted, leaving three individuals shot. Evelyn-Moe and another man, Travis Kimbrough-Sanders, succumbed to their injuries, while a juvenile male who was also wounded was expected to survive.
At the time of the shooting, children were
leaving a nearby school, and the sound of gunshots sent them scattering for safety. The Denver Office of the Medical Examiner later confirmed that both Evelyn-Moe and Kimbrough-Sanders died from gunshot wounds. In the immediate aftermath, police identified the driver of a private vehicle who had transported Evelyn-Moe to the hospital as a person of interest, though further details about this individual's involvement were not released.
Despite the public nature of the incident, information regarding any suspects has remained elusive. Law enforcement has not officially announced any arrests in connection with the double homicide, nor have they publicly identified any suspects. While there was speculation that the shooting might have been gang-related, this has not been confirmed by investigators.
Family and friends of Evelyn-Moe acknowledged his past troubles with the law but emphasized that he had been working to turn his life around. They described him as a man with a warm heart and true intentions to become a better citizen. According to a person close to him, Evelyn-Moe was at the wrong place at the wrong time and was outnumbered and assaulted by individuals who recognized him. The case remains without a public resolution, leaving a community to mourn and await answers.
