CO CO - Two Teens Gunned Down in Subway Restaurant, Littleton 14 February 2000

[imstilla.grandma]

It was Valentine's Day in 2000 when Nicholas "Nick" Kunselman and his girlfriend Stephanie Hart-Grizzell were shot and killed in a Subway restaurant near Columbine High School. The couple was found murdered about 12:47 a.m. in the Subway at 6768 West Coal Mine Avenue in Littleton after an employee drove past the restaurant and noticed the lights still on inside.

When the employee went inside, that's when the bodies of Stephanie, 16, and Nick, 15, were found behind the counter. Investigators determined the couple had been shot by an unknown intruder or intruders. Nick was an employee of Subway and Stephanie was at the restaurant waiting for him to get off work.

Detectives with the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office have been working the case continuously since it happened. Investigators believe someone out there has a key piece of information they have been keeping to themselves and believe that information, no matter how small, could lead to an arrest in the case.

24 years after Colorado "Subway murders" remain unsolved, reward increased up to $100,000

It's been 24 years since the so-called "Subway murders" in Jefferson County where two high school sweethearts were shot to death. Now the reward in the case has been increased up to $100,000.

One thing I noticed is that none of the news articles mentioned whether or not any money was stolen from the store. I'd assume there was some stolen and police are keeping that secret in case they ever have any possible suspects to interview as only the killer(s), or someone the killer(s) told, would know how much money was stolen.

It was likely a robbery. Does one know where the composite of the suspect us? I've seen I can't find it again

I think the police have a suspect and do not have enough evidence to charge him. His initials are NG. He was seen by an eyewitness leaving out the back door a few minutes before the crime was discovered. He has been interviewed by the police at least once. He owned the same clothes seen by the eyewitness. He has been interviewed by the media at least once. I think the primary motive was because he was jealous of the victims relationship, he did not do this only for robbery and drugs.
