Denver District Attorney Beth McCann has formally filed charges against two men in connection with the alleged robbery of three victims and the shooting death of one of the robbery victims.

 

Ibrahim Musa (dob: 02-04-1998) and Husham Al Kinani (dob 2-16-2000) are each charged with one count of felony murder (F1), two counts of aggravated robbery (F3), and one count of criminal attempt to commit aggravated robbery (F4).  Charges were direct-filed in District Court on November 15, 2018.

 

On the night of October 18, 2018, in the 100 block of N. Bannock Street, the defendants allegedly robbed or attempted to rob three victims as they were walking home.
