A nearby resident heard the crash and broke the SUV’s windows in an attempt to help Moore before first responders arrived, police said.
Moore, an Aurora resident, was pronounced dead at the scene from injuries that appeared to be from the crash, police said.
A loaded 9mm handgun with an extended magazine was found inside the Murano, police said. It is not known why Moore was in the area or why the SUV crashed.
