"We are actively working with our partners to get this suspect in custody," said Denver Police Chief Paul Pazen during a news conference on Thursday afternoon.

The fatal shooting happened late Tuesday night in west Denver outside of the Yeshiva Toras Chaim Talmudical Seminary near West Colfax Avenue and North Stuart Street. Silverberg, a student there, was shot and killed after the suspects approached him. He was from the Cleveland area. Investigators do not believe Silverberg's murder was a result of a bias-motivated crime.
