DENVER — The Denver Police Department is asking for the public’s help in finding more information in the shooting death of a man Saturday on 38th Avenue.
Erik McAllister, 41, was found shot around 1:59 a.m. Saturday in the 4200 block of West 38th Avenue, according to a news release from the Denver Police Department.
He was transported to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead from his injuries.
“It’s a nightmare,” said Tiffany Boening, McAllister’s wife.
She says he was shot outside of a bar.
“He just said, ‘I’m so sorry.’ I don’t know if because he knew he wouldn’t be here or just because… I don’t know. I told him I was sorry because I couldn’t help him,” Boening said of McAllister’s final moments.
