DENVER (KDVR) — SWAT used thermal imaging on a Westminster apartment to find and take multiple suspects, one wanted in an armed robbery, into custody.
The Westminster Police Department said officers were originally tracking a suspect in an armed robbery with several felony warrants last week. The search led to an apartment near the 500 block of West 123rd Avenue, just down the road from Willowbrook Park.

Police said the suspect and two others in the apartment attempted to hide in the attic. The other two suspects likely hid because they also had outstanding warrants, according to police. SWAT was called onto the scene, where they used thermal imaging to find the suspects.
With the help of thermal imaging, all three suspects were safely taken into custody, as well as another person on the scene who was also wanted on warrants.
