A grand jury indicted Dhal Buk, 18, with carjacking, using a machine gun during and in relation to a crime of violence and unlawful possession of a machine gun in Denver's Montbello neighborhood, the U.S. Attorney's Office said Wednesday.
The crime spree occurred June 25 and the U.S. Attorney's Office provided this account:
"A group of individuals approached a man seated in his car in the Montbello neighborhood, pointed a gun at him, and told him to get out of his car. Fearing for his life, the man got out of the car. The group got into the car and drove away.
"Buk was later identified as the individual who pointed the gun at the victim, demanded he exit the vehicle, and got into the driver’s seat. After driving off in the stolen car and colliding with another vehicle in the parking lot, Buk and his accomplices abandoned it and fled on foot.
"That same morning, Denver law enforcement officers responded to a ShotSpotter alert of six rounds of fully automatic gunfire in a nearby park. Officers arrived at the park and detained a juvenile accomplice. Officers also arrested Buk after a foot chase.
"Officers recovered a modified Glock 9mm semi-automatic handgun from the scene of the chase. The Glock handgun was equipped with an extended magazine with multiple live rounds. Investigators confirmed the Glock handgun had been altered to fire automatically and was capable of firing multiple rounds with a single trigger pull."
