Both victims were transported to Boulder Community Hospital, one with life-threatening injuries. At approximately 9:45 a.m., police learned that this victim had died in surgery. The second victim is still being treated at BCH. The suspect was arrested on-scene and is currently at the Boulder County Jail.
Both of the victims and the suspect are homeless. Both victims are white males. One is in his late 20s. The homicide victim has not yet been identified. The suspect has been identified as Charles Waters, date of birth 9/14/55. Police continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the attack.

Police have arrested Donald Paul Williams (DOB 4/5/1982) of Denver in connection with an aggravated robbery attempt that occurred at the Bustop Gentlemen’s Club on Aug. 11, 2011.
Williams was arrested on suspicion of Criminal Attempt – Aggravated Robbery and Felony Menacing. He was linked to the crimes through evidence left at the scene as well as from information received from the public.
Witnesses say that a suspect matching Williams’ description entered the Bustop a little before 1 p.m. and confronted the owner, demanding money and brandishing a gun. When the bar owner told another employee to call the police, the suspect fled on foot and was last seen in the industrial complex in the area where the Bustop is located.
Police searched for the suspect and requested assistance from the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office canine team, but weren’t able to find him. They have been actively trying to locate him since the incident. Williams was found in Denver and arrested over the weekend. He is currently in custody at the Denver County Jail.
