Fort Collins Police received a report of shots fired in the Wakerobin Lane area of Fort Collins at approximately 10:22 p.m. last night and discovered a deceased man in an outdoor parking lot by police officers who arrived at the scene of the reported shooting.

Since Sunday night’s shooting, detectives have determined that 26-year-old Janee Cardenas and 29-year-old Donny Ray Pulliam Jr. were involved in a physical dispute with the man who was found deceased. This dispute ultimately culminated in his death, authorities said.

Cardenas and Pulliam Jr. have been arrested and booked into the Larimer County Jail on the charges of first-degree murder and aggravated robbery.

Detectives are currently investigating the incident and the relationship between the suspects and the victim. The Larimer County Coroner will determine the victim’s cause of death and release his identity once the victim’s family is notified.
