R. Z.Governor's Park·5 days agoDid you lose your helmet? My kids had a lemonade stand on Columbia at Amherst today, 6/23. When we cleaned up we saw a gray helmet on the sidewalk next to the table. We think one of their younger patrons left it by accident. I left it on our fence post for now, in case they come back for it, but I’ll bring it in at the end of the day. I’d love to get it back to the owner! I think it may belong to a boy with blonde hair and a blue bike.2Like

LARIMER COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE2+ weeks agoAgencySuspicious vehicle in the area of Timberline and Vine On Thursday, February 22, 2024, at approximately 3pm, it was reported a small white vehicle, possibly an SUV, was driving in the area of Timberline and Vine roads in Fort Collins. A white male got out of the passenger side of the vehicle and contacted a juvenile walking alone in the area. The male had brown hair and brown eyes and was dressed in a black hoodie and a half-white/half-black mask. The juvenile told the male to leave him alone, and the suspect got back into the vehicle and drove away. The driver was reported to be wearing all black. The juvenile was not injured and returned home to their family. Anyone with information regarding this incident or who might have video footage or have been in the area at the time is asked to contact LCSO Investigator Mark Johnston at (970) 498-5509.66Like39

LARIMER COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE2+ weeks agoAgencyCOLD CASE HIGHLIGHT Larimer County Sheriff’s Office investigators, the Windsor Police Department, and the FBI are still seeking information about two unsolved shootings that occurred in April and May of 2015. On April 22, 2015, at approximately 11:15 p.m., Ms. Cori Romero was shot in the neck while driving her vehicle and merging onto southbound Interstate 25 from Harmony Road in Larimer County. Thankfully, Ms. Romero survived her injuries. On May 18, 2015, at approximately 10:15 a.m., Mr. John Jacoby was shot and killed while riding his bicycle near the intersection of Weld County Road 15 and Weld County Road 72 in Windsor. “It’s been nine years since these terrible acts of violence shook our community,” said Investigations Lieutenant Donnie Robbins. “Our investigators won’t stop looking for new information until this suspect is in custody.” Anyone with information about suspect/s involved in these incidents is encouraged to call 970-498-5595, email taskforce@larimer.org, or contact the local FBI office, American Embassy, or Consulate. The FBI is offering a reward of up to $50,000 for information leading to the arrest, prosecution, and conviction of the individual/s responsible for these incidents.129Like

LARIMER COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE2+ weeks agoAgencyOperation Pin Drop: NCDTF Dismantles Drug Trafficking Organization ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the summer of 2023, the Northern Colorado Drug Task Force (NCDTF) began investigating an organized drug trafficking organization responsible for distributing fentanyl, methamphetamine, and cocaine in northern Colorado and throughout the state. After months of intensive casework, NCDTF detectives identified a large regional network of suspects affiliated with international drug cartel operations. After filing charges, detectives conducted search warrants at 11 different homes and seized evidence associated with the case, including: ● 8.5 pounds of fentanyl (21,000 pills, fentanyl powder, fentanyl designed to look like other substances) ● 32 pounds of methamphetamine ● 3 pounds of cocaine ● $42,000+ cash associated with drug distribution ● 28 firearms (several classified as dangerous weapons or had serial numbers removed/altered) “I am so proud of everyone who worked tirelessly to bring this investigation to a positive conclusion. Any reduction of Fentanyl that is coming into our communities has the potential to save a life,” said Lt. Mark Hertz, commander of the regional task force. “The NCDTF is committed to doing our job of supply reduction, as well as partnering with those who are working towards awareness, prevention and education in our local communities as it relates to the opioid crisis.” This operation included more than two dozen partner agencies who assisted in the investigation. “Operation Pin Drop is a perfect example of local and federal agencies working together to positively impact the region,” said the Drug Enforcement Administration’s Rocky Mountain Field Division Acting Special Agent in Charge David Olesky. “While it might feel unnerving to know the Sinaloa Cartel has a presence here, Northern Coloradans can count on our Agents from the Fort Collins Post of Duty to continue working side by side with the Detectives from the Northern Colorado Drug Task Force to stem the cartel’s influence.” Read a complete list of the arrests, charges, and agencies who supported this operations: https://www.larimer.gov/spotlights/2024/03/12/operation-pin-drop-ncdtf-dismantles-drug-trafficking-organization178Like

LARIMER COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE2+ weeks agoAgencyA Larimer County man has been arrested for shooting and killing multiple cattle that belonged to his neighbors. On April 1, 2024, Larimer County Sheriff’s Office received a report that a man, identified as Michael Hester (DOB 02/23/87), had shot and killed livestock around his property. LCSO deputies and a crime scene investigator responded to the Buckhorn Road address. Surrounding neighbors told deputies that the suspect had driven a UTV around while shooting at their livestock. Deputies obtained search warrants and located a total of seven dead cattle in various locations in the area. They also found an eighth cow that had been critically injured and had to be euthanized. Deputies enlisted the services of a brand inspector and licensed livestock appraiser to confirm ownership and value of the animals. They determined that the dead cattle belonged to two neighbors and the total loss is estimated to be over $30,000. Hester was arrested during the initial contact and was issued a $5,000 personal recognizance bond by the Larimer County Court. Additional felony charges have been filed, and he faces the following: • Aggravated Animal Cruelty (F6) - 9 counts • Second Degree Criminal Trespass (F5) • Theft of Certain Animals (F4) - 8 counts • Shooting Across Public Highway “This crime shows a disturbing disregard for life and livelihood,” said Undersheriff Joe Shellhammer, who leads the LCSO Operations Division. “We know how much these animals mean to our ranching community, and we won’t tolerate actions that threaten their welfare.” The Colorado statute commonly known as the “Open Range Law” allows livestock owners to graze animals without containment. Residents who want to restrict livestock access to their property are required to fence off these areas. A booking photo is attached. Anyone with information, who has not already spoken with law enforcement, may contact Deputy Andrea Maxwell at 970-498-5411. People can also contact Crime Stoppers of Larimer County at 970-221-6868. These charges are merely an accusation, and the defendant is presumed innocent until, and unless, proven guilty.213Like

LARIMER COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE2+ weeks agoAgency⚠️SCAM ALERT Scammers are spending their snow day on the phone... we've gotten numerous reports of law enforcement impersonators calling people today. They're "spoofing" our non-emergency number (970-416-1985) so it looks like the call is coming from LCSO, then demand money. Here are the warning signs of this common scam: 📱 You get a call from someone who claims to be an officer or deputy. They may even provide a real person’s name. 👮 The Caller ID shows up as a law enforcement agency. 😮 They tell you that you have a warrant for your arrest. They may tell you not to speak with anyone about the issue or you’ll be arrested for “violating a gag order.” 💰 They demand immediate payment to avoid going to jail. They may ask for gift cards, wire transfers, cryptocurrency (Bitcoin), PayPal, CashApp, or other money transfer methods. This is always a SCAM. Real law enforcement will never call to demand money. If you do have a warrant, there's no buying your way out of it. Scammers use psychological tactics to catch people off guard, create fear and confusion, then prey on panic to get people to pay. It can happen to anyone, so spread the word! #OneAgencyOneMissionPublicSafety115Like42
