On August 21, 2025, members of the Estes Park Police Department and Larimer County All-Hazards / Crisis Response Team responded to the 400 block of Driftwood Avenue in Estes Park to execute a search warrant. A firearm was seized, and Emanuel Fernandez Rojas (09/05/1999) was arrested for a warrant with charges including Reckless Endangerment (M2) and Prohibited Use of Weapons (M1). He has been booked into the Larimer County Jail, and a bond was not set at the time of this release.
This arrest follows an incident on August 17, 2025, when Estes Park Police Officers and a Larimer County Sheriff’s Office Deputy responded to the same Driftwood Avenue home for a reported disturbance. While officers were attempting to verify the well-being of those involved, Rojas obstructed their investigation and assaulted an officer, causing serious bodily injury. Rojas was arrested and booked into the Larimer County Jail on charges of 2nd Degree Assault – Peace Officer (F4) and Obstructing a Peace Officer (M2). He was released on August 18, 2025, after posting a $350 cash bond.
During the disturbance investigation, officers learned that in recent months Rojas had allegedly fired multiple rifle rounds inside the home while intoxicated and when others were present. Fortunately, no injuries were reported. Detectives were able to secure the search and arrest warrants this morning based on this information.
