Three Colorado teenagers have been arrested for allegedly throwing rocks at five separate vehicles across Jefferson County last week, killing one 20-year-old woman, authorities announced Tuesday.

The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office (JCSO) on Tuesday identified the suspects as Joseph Koenig, 18; Nicholas "Mitch" Karol-Chik, 18; and Zachary Kwak, 18, of Avada, Colorado.

"This week’s recognition of Crime Victims’ Rights reminds us of the courage and resilience of crime victims, including the Bartell family. They are our motivation," JCSO said in a Tuesday statement.

Between 10 p.m. and 12 a.m. on April 19 and April 20, the suspect or suspects allegedly threw rocks at five different cars, injuring multiple drivers and killing 20-year-old Alexa Bartell after a rock went through her windshield while she was driving on the 10600 block of Indiana Street, according to the JCSO.
