DENVER (AP) Three teenagers have been arrested in connection with a house fire in Denver that killed five recent immigrants, including two children, from the West African nation of Senegal, police said Wednesday.
Chief Paul Pazen said the suspects two 16-year-olds and a 15-year-old were being held for investigation of first-degree murder, burglary, assault and arson. The evidence does not indicate that the crime was bias-motivated, and police cannot release many additional details about what happened because of the ages of the suspects, Pazen said.
“While we are saddened, we are also thankful that those who allegedly committed this crime were brought to justice and placed in custody,” he said.
