3 arrested in deaths of 2 men at Trinidad bar PLN# 10

In the article about three men getting arrested after a shooting in a bar that lead to two dead, I thought that it was crazy to see how quickly life can be taken away after a little argument. The three men that were arrested were, Samson Lee Lopez and Lukus Sandoval and Ronald Eugene Martinez. Samson Lee Lopez and Lukus Sandoval were arrested on suspicion of first-degree murder and Ronald Eugene Martinez was arrested on a charge of being an accessory to crime. Police say 31-year-old Clifford Maes and 21-year-old Benjamin Griego were shot to death at the Hollywood Bar in Trinidad, Colorado about 180 miles south of Denver, Colorado. Lopez is said to be thirty-years-old, and Sandoval is said to be twenty-seven-years-old. Lopez is said to also face an additional charge of aggravated robbery. I thought that it is so sad to think how short life can be if it is taken away. what matters in this article is two men were shot, so two lives were taken away, and the people responsible are now being punished for there harsh actions. This article is really important to the world because, it can inform the world about how dangerous it is to get into a disagreement with a complete stranger, cause you don't know if the stranger has an anger issue or something, it could cost you your life. This affects me personally, because I was born in Trinidad, Colorado. So if I hadn't moved up to Denver, I might have had friends that knew the people that were killed or something. It is a very serious and sad issue for me to think about because to me it is terrible to hear about lives being taken away from young people.
