A suspect taken into custody in Denver was one of 10 people wounded in a mass shooting incident as basketball fans celebrated the Nuggets’ victory downtown, police said early Tuesday. The suspect was one of two believed to have been involved in a drug deal gone wrong, which sparked the gunfire, according to the Associated Press. Three of victims were left in critical condition after the incident in the center of the city, while the other victims were believed to have sustained non-life-threatening injuries, according to preliminary information released by the Denver Police Department. The PD said the shooting took place on Market Street “in the area where we had the largest gathering of folks celebrating during the night.”
