The two victims of a drive-by shooting late Monday night have been identified by the Denver coroner’s office.

Shot to death were Lowell Franklin, 21, and DeShon Lee, 19, both of Denver. Both died of gunshot wounds, according to the coroner.

A third victim, a woman, has not been identified. Her wounds were not considered life-threatening.

Police said Franklin and Lee got into an argument with other men at a liquor store at Bruce Randolph Avenue and York Street about 11 p.m. Monday. The three victims left the store and drove east on Martin Luther King Boulevard, then stopped for a red light at Steele Street.

A silver or gray SUV pulled up next to them and an occupant of the SUV fired multiple shots into the victims’ car before fleeing. The shooters remain at large, police said.
