Help Us Raise For My Brothers Memorial and Burial

Lakewood, Colorado — Early on Sunday morning, my brother was shot and killed while still inside his automobile in a car wash bay, according to the Lakewood Police Department (LPD). Agents were called to the vicinity of W. Colfax Avenue and Sheridan Boulevard at around 12:15 a.m. on Sunday due to reports of a shooting. Ramon Castro Contreras, 27, was found dead in the driver's seat of his car when authorities arrived. Castro Contreras' car was parked in a car wash bay at the car wash located at 1433 Sheridan Blvd. when surveillance footage captures three masked individuals and a vehicle approaching him attempting to carjack him, shooting and killing him as he drove off.

The money will be used for his memorial service and burial. We appreciate everyone who decides to help. Everything happened so quickly, and we weren't ready for it. Whatever is helpful. Anything will be much appreciated by our family.
