A woman on the phone with her sister heard an argument, followed by gunshots, Colorado police reported.
The woman called 911 around 7pm on Thursday, Jan 18, to report the incident, Aurora police said in a Jan 19 news release.
Officers responded to the sister’s apartment and broke in when no one answered the door, police said. They found the 35-year-old woman with gunshot wounds.
The identity of the woman, who died at the scene, has not been released, police said.
Neighbours told KDVR that gunshots are not uncommon in the neighbourhood.
“I hate to hear it but not really surprising in this neighbourhood,” Cory Garbiso told the station.
Police ask anyone with information to contact them.
