Police said the suspect, a 17-year-old boy, was arrested Tuesday afternoon in connection with the August shooting.

AURORA, Colo. — A fourth teen suspect has been arrested in connection with the death of a man who was killed after confronting scooter thieves at his home in August, the Aurora Police Department said

Police said the suspect, a 17-year-old boy, was arrested Tuesday afternoon. He was booked into jail on charges of first-degree murder and aggravated robbery. Because he is under 18, his name is not being released. 

Miguel Angel Saucedo Araujo, 49, was killed in the shooting around 4:30 a.m. Aug. 23 on Paris Street near the intersection with Del Mar Circle. 

Three other teens were previously arrested in connection with the shooting. Hector Portillo, now 17, was arrested Sept. 2. He is being charged as an adult, prosecutors said. Two other suspects, 18-year-old Ahmed Mohamed and a 15-year-old Aurora boy, were arrested in October, police said. 

All four suspects face first-degree murder and aggravated robbery charges. 

Police said Wednesday that they are not looking for any other suspects.

Police said the day of the shooting, the victim and his son woke up to the sound of two people stealing scooters that were parked in the backyard of their house. Saucedo Araujo and his son confronted the people, who drove away on the stolen scooters, police said. 

Araujo and his son chased the scooter thieves in their pickup. During the chase, someone fired shots at the pickup, police said.

When Araujo and his son returned home, somebody drove by the front of their house and fired several rounds into the home, police said. One bullet hit Araujo, killing him.
