Boulder man accused of shooting two people over five days

BOULDER, Colo. — A Boulder man is accused of shooting two people over five days during separate incidents.

According to the Boulder Police Department, a man arrived at the hospital around 2 a.m. with a gunshot wound and said he was shot by an unknown man.

Investigators identified a possible suspect and his address in the 1700 block of Baseline. Detectives then determined Wednesday’s shooting was connected to a shooting that happened Friday night in the 1600 block of 28th Street, according to Boulder PD.

On Friday, a 911 caller said they heard gunshots around 9 p.m. However, when officers arrived, they did not find a victim.

Boulder police said investigators followed up on several leads and found the victim — a man who was shot in the shoulder but did not seek medical attention until Wednesday.

Authorities contacted the suspect — identified as 35-year-old John Paul Gaudreau — and took him into custody around 11:15 a.m. Wednesday. At least one firearm was recovered, according to Boulder PD.
