"A shooting early Tuesday that injured 10 people, including at least one suspect and several bystanders, was likely the result of a drug deal which police said they don't think was related to celebrations of the Denver Nuggets championship win.
"What we couldn't have planned for is a drug deal right in the middle of a celebration for an NBA Championship," said Denver Police Chief Ron Thomas. "Thankfully, we were close enough to be able to respond quickly, take suspects into custody and tend to those that were wounded.""
"The suspects were identified as 22-year-old Ricardo Vasquez and 33-year-old Raoul Jones. Vasquez ran from the area and was chased by officers and taken into custody near Park Avenue and Blake Street, according to DPD Commander Matt Clark.
Vasquez was was shot in the incident and taken to the hospital for treatment."
