Police in Colorado are asking for the public’s help in locating any suspects involved in the brutal murder of 14-year-old JoJo Aragon in Denver.

Authorities found Aragon deceased near a baseball field at the Southwest Recreation Center on Aug. 8 just after 1 p.m. MT.

“This is still is under investigation, and we are looking for anybody with information to call Denver PD or [Denver Metro] Crime Stoppers,” a Denver Police Department (DPD) spokesperson told Fox News Digital on Tuesday.

DPD’s investigation into Aragon’s death is still active and ongoing as of Tuesday afternoon.

Police are making efforts to locate and obtain any security camera footage from the area where Aragon was found dead.

The 14-year-old was two days away from his 15th birthday at the time of his murder.

“Somebody murdered my son. A day before his birthday,” Aragon’s father, Daniel Dominguez, wrote in a Facebook post last week.

While there are no additional updates in the case, the Denver Office of the Medical Examiner released an autopsy report regarding Aragon’s death last week. The 14-year-old died by “multiple sharp and blunt force injuries with a gunshot wound,” the report states.

The medical examiner ruled Aragon’s death a homicide, the outlet reported.

The Denver community on held a vigil for Aragon on Monday.

Authorities are asking anyone with information about the incident to contact Denver Metro Crime Stoppers at 704-913-7867. Tipsters can remain anonymous by calling the tipline.

A $2,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest of any suspects.
