COLORADO SPRINGS, CO — The Colorado Springs Police Department made two arrests in connection to a fatal shooting that took place Friday, November 17th, in a neighborhood near the intersection of Platte and Union.

On. Thurs. Jan. 11, CSPD arrested a 15-year-old boy in a local high school in connection to the shooting. The other suspect, 52-year-old Fredy Marquez-Hurvina, was already in the El Paso County Jail for an unrelated warrant. Both suspects are facing a first degree murder charge.
