BOULDER, CO — The University of Colorado Boulder community is in deep mourning following an off-campus shooting in the University Hill neighborhood that claimed the life of 19-year-old Luca Hanlon, a second-year media production student in the College of Communication, Media, Design and Information (CMCI).
Another 19-year-old CU Boulder student was also injured in the incident and received emergency medical treatment. Authorities have since taken a suspect into custody.
Hadley was more than a name to those closest to her. She was a cherished family member, a loyal friend, and someone whose presence held a special place in the lives of many.
Those remembering Hadley describe her as kind, warm, and genuine. She was said to have a way of making people feel valued and welcome, offering comfort through thoughtful words, a listening ear, and her willingness to be there when others needed support.
Her passing leaves a void among those who shared meaningful moments and connections with her. As loved ones reflect on her life, they are holding on to the memories and experiences that made her important to them.
At this time, no further details about her age, the circumstances surrounding her death, or the date of her passing have been provided.
Heartfelt condolences go out to Hadley Kaloupek’s family, friends, and all those mourning her loss in Charleston and beyond.
May her memory bring comfort to those who loved her, and may they find strength during this difficult time.
