Suspects in strip club shooting of NFL player Josh Reynolds charged with attempted murder

The suspects involved in the shooting of Denver Broncos player Josh Reynolds after he left a strip club have been charged with attempted murder.

The two men involved have been named as Burr Charlesworth and Luis Mendoza, as per 9News.

Mendoza has been charged with 23 felonies including six counts of attempted first-degree murder, six counts of first-degree assault and three counts of drug possession.

Charlesworth, meanwhile, has 15 charged including six accounts of attempted first degree murder.

Reynolds had been at Shotgun Willie’s in Glendale, Colorado until nearly 3am that night with two male acquaintances.

Reynolds was hit in the back of the head and his arm, according to police, but the injuries were described as minor and nobody else was seriously hurt. 

The Broncos said in a team statement at the time that Reynolds needed treatment for minor injuries.

The 29-year-old Reynolds, a wide receiver, is in his eighth NFL season and signed a two-year, $9million deal to join the Broncos earlier this year.

Reynolds is on a four-week injured reserve list due to a fractured finger from his team’s win over Las Vegas Raiders on Oct. 6.
