| 2023-10-19 | |
| [FoxNews] A Colorado investigator testified Wednesday that the teenagers accused of killing a 20-year-old woman after throwing a landscaping rock through her car windshield had been throwing rocks at moving vehicles for about two months before their actions allegedly resulted in a fatality. The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office (JCSO) in April arrested three then-18-year-old suspects — Joseph Koenig, Nicholas "Mitch" Karol-Chik and Zachary Kwak, of Arvada — in connection with the homicide of Alexa Bartell, who died after a large rock flew through her windshield and hit her in the head on April 19. A judge ruled after a preliminary hearing Wednesday that the three teens will face trial. The lead investigator assigned to the case testified during the preliminary hearing that Karol-Chik told him he and his friends had thrown rocks at cars approximately 10 times between February and April. Prior to Bartell's death, Koenig and Karol-Chik allegedly threw a landscaping "statue head" at a vehicle carrying a couple and their children earlier in April, the investigator testified. The suspected admitted to "throwing rocks not just at targets but at people driving," the investigator said.
