An Aurora man was arrested on suspicion of murder after police say he intentionally crashed into a motorcycle rider in November, killing the man.
Jeremy Austen House, 41, was arrested on suspicion of first-degree murder after deliberation in the death of Dorian Matthew Torrez, according to the Aurora Police Department.
House was driving a 2000 Buick Century near the intersection of South Havana Street and East Jewell Avenue at around 12:15 a.m. on Nov. 18 when he allegedly hit Torrez, who was riding a 2002 Honda motorcycle, and fled the scene.
Torrez, 34, was taken to the hospital and later died.
House and Alexandra Lynn Noorlun, 33, were identified as suspects in the case and arrested Tuesday after barricading themselves at home in the 12200 block of East Kansas Place. They surrendered to police after two hours.
Noorlun, who is also an Aurora resident, was arrested on suspicion of being an accessory to a crime and tampering with evidence, both felonies.
Aurora police spokesperson Joe Moylan said he did not have specific information about how House and Noorlun were connected to Torrez but confirmed they knew each other.
Arrest affidavits for House and Noorlun were sealed as of Thursday, according to the Arapahoe County District Court.
House is being held without bail at the Arapahoe County Detention Center and is set to appear in court Friday, according to court records.
Noorlun is in custody on a $50,000 bail. Her next court date was not available Wednesday.
The investigation is ongoing, Aurora police said Wednesday, and anyone with information about the case can contact Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867.
