In an incident that has disrupted the tranquility of a local neighborhood, Fort Collins Police Services (FCPS) are vigorously investigating an overnight shooting linked to a vehicle trespass. According to the City of Fort Collins, the confrontation occurred in the early hours on the 700 block of Crown Ridge Ln, where a woman, in response to the alert by a family member, bravely faced two individuals purportedly breaking into her car and succumbed to a leg injury due to gunfire.
The two suspects managed to evade on foot, leaving the victim awaiting aid which was promptly given by the responding officers, her subsequent hospitalization led to swift treatment fortunately allowing for a prompt release, the suspects' descriptions, limited as they stand, point towards males clad in dark clothes, hoodies, and carrying backpacks and these individuals are yet to be brought to book and carry a label of armed and dangerous. In an urgent call to action, residents of the vicinity have been asked to scour their home security systems for footage that could cast light on the suspects' identities, especially during the window of time between 11:00 p.m. and 3:00 a.m., from Sunday night to Monday morning.
The appeal for community involvement extends beyond the pursuit of suspicious figures in recent recordings as the force also urges locals who've encountered vehicular trespass since August to step forward with reports, these narrative threads might weave together to further the current investigation, with Detective Dollie Knab reachable via email at [email protected] or through the FCPS tip line for those preferring telephone communication.
