Man charged with murder in woman’s fatal shooting in Aurora

Aurora police arrested a 32-year-old man in connection to the fatal shooting of a woman Saturday.

Officers from multiple teams apprehended Jeovany Gonzalez-Acuna, police said. Gonzalez-Acuna was arrested on suspicion of first-degree murder and domestic violence at about 7 p.m. Saturday on East Parker Avenue and South Dartmouth Road without incident, Aurora police wrote in a news release.

The 17th Judicial District Attorney’s Office on Thursday announced it was filing a first-degree murder charge against Gonzalez-Acuna in the death of his 45-year-old girlfriend. It also filed three counts of misdemeanor violation of a protection order against him.

Police received a call at about 6:45 a.m. on Saturday to a home in the 3000 block of North Peoria Street where they found an adult woman who died of a gunshot wound. The person who made the call had left by the time officers arrived and the gun was no longer there either, according to police.

Authorities have not yet publicly released the victim’s identity.

Gonzales-Acuna is scheduled for a court appearance at 1:30 p.m. Sept. 22.
