DENVER (AP) - Authorities have identified a man who was shot to death during a robbery at a Denver train station.

The Denver Post reports (https://dpo.st/2lmEo3Q ) 32-year-old Tim Cruz died Tuesday at the Regional Transportation District station.

Police say the victim was at the station on Sheridan Boulevard at around 1 a.m. when two masked men with backpacks approached him and robbed him at gunpoint. One of them then shot and killed the man and they both escaped.



Police released a surveillance photo of the two suspects but say no arrests have been made.

Officers do not suspect the killing is connected to another shooting that left a transit guard dead at a Denver station eight days earlier. Thirty-seven-year-old Joshua Cummings has been charged with murder in connection with Scott Von Lanken’s death.
