Arvada tire store manager wounded in shooting during argument

A 20-year-old tire store employee is accused of shooting his boss during an argument at the store late Thursday afternoon, according to an affidavit for his arrest.

Arvada police responded to the shooting at the Big O Tires at 7425 W. 52nd Ave. just before 3 p.m. That is near the intersection of 52nd Avenue and Vance Street.

According to the affidavit, multiple people called 911 and indicated that an employee, identified as 20-year-old Andrew Anderson, shot another employee and then ran from the store.

Another employee reported that he initially chased Anderson but lost sight of him and returned to the store, where he found the store manager wounded in the office area. According to the affidavit, that employee helped the manager get next door to the Kidney Center because he hoped workers there might be able to provide aid before an ambulance arrived.

When officers arrived, they found the victim in the doorway of that business. The victim was taken to the hospital and was in surgery, police said. He was shot more than once, a police spokesperson said.

That same employee said he had argued with Anderson earlier in the day about him being “lazy,” the affidavit said. That employee said he often argued verbally with Anderson about his work ethic and said that morning they talked about going outside to fight — but ultimately didn’t.
