DENVER — (DENVER) -- Three Colorado teenagers arrested in connection with a rock-throwing spree that killed a driver have been formally charged with murder.
They also now face a dozen other counts for allegedly throwing large landscaping rocks toward seven vehicles on suburban Denver roads on April 19.
The final rock-throwing incident killed 20-year-old driver Alexa Bartell. Three other people were injured, according to prosecutors. "Based on the available facts and after careful legal analysis, we have filed charges and will now move forward with a criminal prosecution," First Judicial District Attorney Alexis King said in a statement."It is important to remember that these individuals are presumed innocent unless and until they are proven guilty. As in every case, our goal is to seek justice.”
The three defendants, dressed in orange jumpsuits and handcuffed, sat with their attorneys. A court official escorted six family members who sat in the front row. The families declined to talk to ABC News or identify themselves.
