The victim was standing in front of the dormitories of Yeshiva Toras Chaim at 1555 Stuart Street, Denver when a vehicle pulled up and an assailant opened fire from inside, striking and killing the young man. The vehicle fled the scene and the man was rushed to hospital where he died of his injuries.
Police do not believe the victim was deliberately targeted because he was Jewish or that the assailant had targeted the yeshiva, as there have been several other similar shootings in the area which did not target Jewish people or institutions.
Misaskim was notified in the middle of the night, and was working with local authorities to release the body of the victim as well as notifying the family of the young man, who was from a different state.
UPDATE:
The Levaya for Shmuel Silverberg, the Bochur who was fatally shot in Denver, will be held at 11 PM at the 7th Street Chapel in Lakewood. The address is 613 Ramsey Avenue, Lakewood, NJ 08701.
It’s never a hate crime when it’s a Jew, if you cannot positively prove it, it’s always a hate crime when it’s a African, if you cannot exclude it.
BDE! Does anyone honestly believe that this wasn’t a hate crime directed against Jews? A car would deliberately open fire on a Yeshivah, and kill a student standing there? The authorities always look to downplay these hate crimes.
B’DE!! Such tragic circumstances!!!
On foxnews the answer to the puzzle is 13%
BDE, what a terrible tragedy in the month of Elul. May HaKodesh BorcHu grant comfort & solace to this grieving family. I can not fathom the pain & suffering this family is experiencing. Let us all be of Lev Echad & comfort our brothers & sisters in their time of suffering.
But this of course isn’t an anti Semitic action. It’s all his fault who told him to walk in front of a bullet

So these are thrill seekers or people with a twisted mission like the D.C. snipers? This has been happening in the area? What a horrible stupid pointless waste of a 19 year old yeshiva boy who had his whole life ahead of him.
This horrible hate crime against Jews, wasn’t even reported on cable tv, or the print media, with the exception of Jewish news outlets.
EXTREMELY irresponsible reporting. How do they know whether the murderer(s) were targeting a Jew if they don’t even have a suspect in custody? This is typical of the controlled, manipulated propaganda that is fed to you on a daily basis by the propaganda media. Believe them at your own risk.
(Betcha anything the killer was targeting Jews…duh.)
המקום ינחם אתכם בתוך שאר אבילי ציון וירושלם.
ברוך דיין אמת
it’s biden ‘s fault, of course. duh
Let’s say for argument’s sake that he was not targeted because he was a Jew, it is just that the shooter likes shooting random people, and has done so before several times in the neighborhood, as the article says.
And what are the authorities doing about it? Is law enforcement now so weak in Denver that random murder is tolerated? Sounds really bad for the authorities, IMO. If I were in Denver, I would think about leaving.

The article is confusing. Is “Denver” Yeshiva in New Jersey or something? Or is this Denver Colorado, but funeral will be in NJ despite his not being from there…?
