DENVER—A police detective says three men accused of robbing and fatally stabbing five people at a Denver bar last October collected $170 before setting the place on fire.
Detective Mark Crider testified Friday that an informant helped lead investigators to Dexter Bernard Lewis and brothers Joseph Hill and Lynell Jonathan Hill. The three are charged with first-degree murder, felony murder, robbery and arson.
The Denver Post reports () Joseph Hill allegedly told Crider the plot to rob Fero’s Bar & Grill developed because his brother needed money for a court case. The bar was owned by Young Suk Fero, who was the landlord of one of the brothers.
She was killed along with Daria Pohl, Kellene Fallon and Tereasa Beesley of Denver; and Ross Richter, of Overland Park, Kan.
