SINGLE SOURCE
The specific time (6:25 p.m.) and location (2600 block of W. 40th Avenue) are mentioned in only one search result. Other results are general information about Denver and are not corroborating evidence for this specific event.

Claim 2: “Both victims were taken to a hospital”

Claim 5: “Police in Denver are investigating a shooting that sent two people to the hospital in the city's Sunnyside neighborhood Tuesday evening.”
SINGLE SOURCE
One web search result explicitly confirms the shooting in the Sunnyside neighborhood on Tuesday evening involving two people sent to the hospital. However, another web search result reports a different shooting in the same neighborhood (North Pecos Street) with one dead and two injured, creating ambiguity. Since only one specific source matches the claim's details exactly, it is a single source.
