A double slaying east of Colorado Springs on Thursday was the result of a gang-related clash over a stolen iPod, the El Paso County Sheriff's Office said.
The suspect, 19-year-old Juan Vasquez, was arrested early Friday in the shooting deaths of two male high school students at a park in the Cimarron Hills area, sheriff's spokeswoman Lt. Lari Sevene said.
The victims were identified as 18-year-old Uriel Rascon and 17-year-old Luis Burciaga. Rascon attended Sierra High School, and Burciaga went to The New Horizons School, an alternative high school. Both schools are in Harrison School District 2.
Vasquez is being held in the El Paso County jail on an immigration hold placed by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, jail records show.
He is due to appear in court Monday. An arrest affidavit was not available.
Autopsies determined that Rascon and Burciaga each died of a gunshot wound in the chest. They were shot with an SKS semiautomatic rifle, the El Paso County Sheriff's Office said.
Sevene said Vasquez and the two victims were members of rival gangs. They met in the Cimarron Eastridge Park off Constitution Avenue, Sevene said, in what apparently was a brawl set off by a fight involving Sand Creek High School students the day earlier over an iPod music player.
Illegal alien?
I’m a country mouse...this type of crap doesn’t happen out here. I’m just sayin”...
Did he get his iPod back?
Isn’t diversity grand?
“Blue” comes to what was once a Red state.
Let me guess....semiautomatic rifles are illegal in this state, correct?
Damn, Colorado Springs too. Colorado used to be a solid red state. Now it’s turning into an illegal alien cesspool.
Just doing the killing American highschoolers won’t do.
Naturally.
You laugh, but Mexicans really will kill each other over the stupidest stuff. A few years back, here in the Triangle area, we had a news story in which one Mexican guy killed (can't remember if he shot him, or what) another over whose village back in Mexico was better. Seriously.
Does this fit under the “We are doomed category ?
He would look a lot more respectful with a bullet hole in his forehead.
Nineteen year olds should not be in high school.
So sad! We can produce these young kids, while we make laws that forbid what really is needed in our homes, and our schools!
“By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil.” (Proverbs 16:6)

I expect a lot of school shootings and stabbings will increase now that Obama is President. Especially among inner-city schools where black teens will be empowered.
It is hard to find one that isn't.
But he was in the tenth grade. LOL That’s a joke!!!
