BOULDER, Colo. (CBS4) - One man was killed after he was shot multiple times in a mobile home park in Boulder on Friday morning. Several hours later, deputies arrested two people in connection with what has been determined to be murder.

Shots rang out at a trailer home at approximately 8:15 a.m. at 4475 North Broadway, according to the Boulder County Sheriff.

The victim was found lying outside on the ground. He was rushed to the hospital and died soon afterwards. The man has not been identified.

Neighbors woke up to gun shots, and others, later, to questions from law enforcement.

"It freaked me out to have somebody dead in Ponderosa Pines," said Howie, who stays in the area and did not want his last name used.

Deputies interviewed two people who were in the home at the time as well as people in nearby mobile homes. Based on those interviews, deputies arrested two people, Cody F. Nelson and Miriam L. Nayeh.

Nelson, 51, was arrested for murder in the first degree and prohibited use of a weapon. Nayeh, 31, was arrested for accessory to murder in the first degree and domestic violence.

"Investigators are speaking with the two people that came from the trailer plus we're also speaking with all of the witnesses, people that heard the gunshots. People that live adjacent to the area. And we'll try to piece things together and figure out how what happened," Boulder County Sheriff's Commander Heidi Prentup told CBS4 before the arrests.
