The last of three police officers injured in a Thursday shooting that left another officer dead was released from a local hospital Sunday, the Lakewood Police Department said. The shooting took place on a Regional Transportation District bus at the intersection of West Colfax Avenue and Wadsworth Boulevard. Nick Graham, 33, was killed. Graham joined the Lakewood Police Department in January 2019 and came from a police family. The shooting also injured one of four people on the bus. That person was treated at a hospital and released Thursday night, according to the police department’s statement released Sunday. Two other police officers injured in the shooting were discharged from hospitals Friday. “They are now at home, continuing their recovery alongside their families,” the statement said. The suspect, 34, was getting onto an RTD bus at about 6:30 p.m. when he began shooting, police said.
