The incident was not labeled anti-Semitic at this point. Rather, police say it was part of a crime spree and are searching for the culprits.
A 19-year-old yeshiva student was shot dead late Tuesday night in front of Yeshiva Toras Chaim in Denver, Colorado, Yeshiva World News (YWN) reported.
A vehicle driving past the yeshiva opened fire and fled immediately, sources told YWN.
