An 18-year-old woman, Keanna Rosenburgh, has pleaded guilty to one count of attempted murder following a shooting incident in Denver's bustling Lower Downtown (LoDo) district in 2023. In September last year, Rosenburgh had been denied entry to a popular bar, later opening fire and injuring five individuals, as reported by Denver7. The shooting unfolded in front of Dierks Bentley's Whiskey Row, and all victims survived their injuries.

After the incident, fleeing to Southern California, Rosenburgh became a fugitive until the coordinated efforts of the Denver Police and the Los Angeles FBI led to her arrest on October 19, 2023. Despite being charged as an adult due to her age at the time of the crime, she has been deemed eligible for Youth Offender Services (YOS), as detailed by the Denver Gazette. Entering into a plea agreement, Rosenburgh faces a five-to-seven-year term in the YOS, with a suspended 21-year Department of Corrections sentence contingent upon the successful completion of her time in the youth system.

This plea deal comes with a significant stipulation, should Rosenburgh fail to abide by the conditions of the Youthful Offender System or have her sentence revoked, she will then face a prison term of 21 years.

Rosenburgh is set to appear before the court again for her sentencing hearing on January 22, 2025, which was confirmed by the Denver Police officials, who are still recovering from the shooting, as stated by the Denver Post.
