Police executed a search warrant for the house at 236 S. Chestnut on Thursday morning in connection to the homicide of Natalie Hatch, 21, of Towaoc, Sunday night.<\/span>Sam Green\/Cortez Journal<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Cortez Police Chief Roy Lane said Natalie Hatch, 21, as a result of a shooting that occurred around 10:15 p.m. at Cedar Terrace Apartments.<\/p>\n

Quincy Yellow, 18, of Towaoc also was shot at the scene and airlifted to an unknown medical center, Lane said.<\/p>\n

A search warrant was executed the morning of Thursday, Sept. 19, at 236 S. Chestnut Street. However, no arrest was made, Lane said.<\/p>\n

Early Monday, Sept. 16, police were still canvassing the neighborhood for potential witnesses, but Lane said residents were in no immediate danger.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are several people of interest that we\u2019re talking to,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Lane said it was too early to speculate on a motive, and he declined to comment on the type of weapon used in the incident. Both victims were residents of the apartment complex, he said.<\/p>\n

When questioned if police had any potential suspect descriptions, the spokeswoman said no advisories had been issued.<\/p>\n

Sunday\u2019s shooting marked the second such incident in four days.<\/p>\n
