Shoplifter Fatally Shot at Mall by Police; 2nd Suspect Arrested

Officers were responding to reports of a theft at the Macy’s at Park Meadows at around 8:20 p.m. Thursday, when a suspect, later identified as Kenneth Joseph Sisneros, 34, was shot and killed by police.

Sisneros reportedly pulled out a gun as both he and a female accomplice tried to escape. It’s still unclear if Sisneros fired his weapon at the cops.

A Colorado woman believed to be the second shoplifting suspect wanted following the shooting at the mall on Thursday has been arrested by Lone Tree police. Mercedes Cruz, 27, was arrested at a Littleton hotel at about 3 a.m. Sunday, City of Lone Tree officials said in a tweet just before 10 a.m. Sunday.   She faces charges of aggravated robbery and possession of meth amphetamines, police said in a news release.   [Source: The Denver Channel]
