Yesterday morning, there was a fire at Fero’s Bar & Grill in Denver, Colorado and five dead bodies were pulled from the rubble.  There have now been 3 arrests made in the killings at the Denver bar.

The fire report was called in at 1:50am, right before the 2am closing time at the bar.

Authorities weren’t really sure what had taken place at the Denver bar but did believe that the 5 people were dead, after suffering some sort of trauma, before the fire began.

There was extensive fire damage to the bar and officials speculated that even if the 5 people were alive before the fire that they would not have survived the fire itself and the fire was being investigated as an arson suicide.

The bar which has been described as a “dive” type bar had been struggling financially with the owner trying to sell the bar so it is unknown, at this time, if it was a random robbery or if the business was targeted.

There have now been 3 arrests made in the killings at the Denver bar.

Dexter Lewis, 22, Joseph Hill, 27, and Lynell Hill, 24 were arrested today and charged with five counts of first-degree murder, five counts felony murder, and one count each of aggravated robbery and arson.

Two of the suspects apparently have criminal records in Colorado. According to court records, authorities were already looking for Lynell Hill for failing to appear in court in a case from 2010.

One of the dead was the bar’s owner, Young Suk Fero, 63.

She was reportedly married, but estranged, from Danny Duane Fero, 58 who was the one who initially bought the bar in 1984 and Young Suk became the sole owner of Fero’s when they separated in 1998.

The other 4 victims in the Denver bar killings have been identified, according to the Denver Post, as Daria M. Pohl, 22,  Kellene Fallon, 45,  Ross Richter, 29, and Tereasa Beesley, 45.

All of the victims were from the Denver area.

The three suspects are all expected to face capital murder charges.
