    Maybe there were a couple of liberals trying to promote gun control, by adding fuel to the fire.

    Is that area considered Boulder? (Serious question really, I consider anything North on 285 and past the Morrison exit, "a suburb of Denver".)

    They were probably just "swatting". Apparently that's the cool thing to do these days.

    I assumed I would hear the word "airsoft" in a later report when I first heard this story.

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    Thanks, I was guessing its one of those two, always wonder though.

    Years ago when I met the wife, she worked near Painter's Supply on Sante Fe, and it was considered Sheridan, and Arapahoe district... kind of baffled me.

    But back on topic: Comms have been somewhat silent, got nothing new. Thought I heard mention of a 12 year old and a 6 year old, but friend says that was related to a different incident with JeffCo.

    My wife is at that concert. Hope it's just a false alarm.

    I was involved in a similar situation in that same area in the early 90s. A deputy was on Quincy right at Turkey Creek Rd. He reported he was pinned down under his car by someone firing a rifle at him. We closed C-470 and 285. The SWAT team was deployed on the Hogback, etc. We did a pretty dynamic officer rescue and could hear the gunfire and rounds going over our heads.

    After it was all over it turned out there were some people target practicing on their property right near that intersection. They'd hung their targets on the side of an old barn and were shooting various rifles at them. Most of the rounds were going right through the wooden walls of the barn and sailing out over C-470 towards where the Home Depot is now.

    I think they got Reckless Endangerment tickets or something similar.

    Way back in the day when I was a teenager, I was involved in WWII reenacting. We used to have our battles right there on the hogback, shooting blanks at one another with real rifles. That was right around the time they were expanding the roadway to become C470.

    Never heard a peep from the S.O.
