Attorneys in the case against a former Greenwood Village police officer laid out their cases in opening statements more than two years after the fatal shooting of 17-year-old Peyton Blitstein in Aurora. Peyton was shot at least four times during an exchange of gunfire with Adam Holen on the night of Nov. 24, 2021, outside a home in the 4900 block of South Addison Way in southeast Aurora. Blitstein died. Holen was shot in the hip and was treated and released from the hospital the next morning, according to court documents. Police said Peyton fired a gun first, and Holen returned fire. Despite that, investigators said in an arrest affidavit, that Holen was the primary aggressor because he initiated contact with Peyton and his friends and chose not to drive away when things became more heated.
