DENVER – Two young men have been formally charged with robbing three people and killing one of them in a street robbery in Denver’s Baker neighborhood on Oct. 18.

Prosecutors direct-filed the charges against the two on Nov. 15, a day after police announced their arrests.

Musa and Al Kinani are set to appear in court for their second advisements on Thursday.
