WELD COUNTY – A routine patrol by the Weld County Sheriff’s Office (WCSO) Strike Team quickly escalated into a chaotic scene late last night at the Hill-N-Park area, ending with two suspects in custody after a vehicle collision, a foot pursuit, and the recovery of a loaded firearm.
The incident began when a Strike Team deputy spotted a vehicle occupied by two individuals with active warrants.
