Ruben Arturo Cano, 48, was shot and killed at his Westminster, Colorado home on the night of December 18, 2024. He had recently moved into a residence near the Orchard Town Center and was building a life there with his step-wife and three children; he also worked in a construction business with his son. A knock at the door, whose peephole was obscured by Christmas ornaments, preceded the attack. When Ruben opened the door he was met with gunfire and was pronounced dead at his doorstep.

Westminster police describe the shooting as an isolated incident in which Ruben was the apparent intended target. An eyewitness saw a person dressed entirely in black fleeing toward a nearby parking lot. The suspect remains at large and investigators are asking the community for any information or surveillance footage that could help identify the shooter.

Does anyone in the Westminster area have footage or observations from the night of December 18 that could assist the family and investigators?
