DENVER (CBS4) — One of three men who barged into a south Denver home Saturday night and ordered people to the ground in an attempted robbery later walked into urgent care with gunshot wounds as his colleagues sped away.
That man, Ragal Adan, 19, is recovering at Denver Health Medical Center, according to the Denver Police Department. He suffered an injury to his abdomen after exchanging gunfire with one of the occupants of the house..
Adan’s partners in crime are still at large. And he’s not telling detectives who they are, DPD stated in a press release Monday.
Officers were alerted to the incident at 8 p.m. Saturday and responded to the 2800 block of South Madison Street. According to police documents, three men entered the unlocked front door with one firearm between them and told the people inside to get on the floor. At some point, a member of the household lifted a firearm of his or her own, and shots were fired between the two armed persons.

It appears one of three home invaders had a semi-automatic rifle. When they ordered people inside the house to the ground, a person in the house emerged from a bedroom with a handgun. A gunfight followed. Two people were wounded.
Later reporting confirmed the other person injured was a resident of the home, who suffered a graze wound to the head.
Let’s make this simple. No names of fellow perps? No medical care. Rot in hell!
I WILL get the first shot off.
Reporting is not that clear on this incident.
Must have been white nationalism since there is no descriptions of the home invaders.
One source reported two black men dropped Ragat off at the hospital.
“...An online search of criminal records shows Adan has no previous adult arrests or charges in Colorado.”
*************************************************
Well...duh! He’s 19 years old and likely just entering legal adulthood. I bet his juvenile criminal record is extensive.
“Been answering my door with a gun in my hand (usually a Charter Arms Bulldog) for 29 years.”
I always investigate nocturnal noises armed with a shotgun. There was one single time that I didn’t. In 1983 I went to check out a noise coming from my kitchen about half past midnight in the summer. I confronted a burglar who stabbed me and ran.
When the police came 5 minutes later, the chief of police asked if I owned a gun. I said yes. He said why didn’t you use it?
“Adan’s partners in crime are still at large. And he’s not telling detectives who they are, DPD stated in a press release Monday”
Ha, the joke is on them. Any minute now the FBI will go to the cell phone company and find out who else was at the house with him, who drove him to the scene and everything. Right?
I don’t think i’ve ever heard of anyone named Ragat or Adan. Wonder what the origin of those names is.
If you get one it will not be long before one finds out who the others are.
Their is no honor among crooks.
Just some good old fashion detective work will come up with them.
Nowadays if you say you have guns,they’ll figure out a way to take them.
and always lock your door.
Exactly. Like Saint Trayvon.
I personally find that the folks in Denver are nearly as messed up as they are in Seattle... Not quite, but it's getting there...
The FBI? Only if they were thought to be Republicans.
AH! In my neck of the woods.
I’m always no more than 2 seconds from a loaded gun in my house.
I could use a few more suppressors, though.
Colorado ping.
“Reporting is not clear on this incident”.
I am shocked to hear you say that a reporter was not clear.
Yeppers... A fella could have one fine gat, but what good would it be if he's in the TV room and his piece in in the nightstand when the dark forces bust thru the door..
Yep. I used to work in law enforcement relations for a major cell provider. I always tell my friends that if you are going to do bad stuff, leave your phone at home. It’s like a time machine, telling the cops everywhere you’ve been for the last decade or so. Of course, it’s only accurate to a couple of feet. :)
