Dec 30th
BOULDER COUNTY-On December 29, 2013 at approximately 7:35 p.m. The Short Stop gas station located at 1595 55th Street in Boulder County was robbed. The station clerk reported a male displayed a gun, which he had in his waistband, and demanded money before leaving the area.
The suspect is described as a Latin male approximately 5’8-5’10 with a “scrawny build”. He wore a gray beanie hat with an orange decal or writing on one side that may have been a Denver Broncos logo or emblem. He had a dark gray jacket with a black inside or liner and blue jeans. The jeans were held on by a black belt and his jeans were sagging quite a bit. He had a tattoo on his abdomen that appeared to be old English writing.
He was driving a dark colored older model 2-door Chevrolet blazer with duct tape on the rear passenger wing window and left driving southbound on 55th Street from Arapahoe Road.

Case number 13-6910
Debris removal for the plains Begins Dec. 9
Dec 2nd
What: Removal of flood-related household debris, woody debris (vegetation), and mud, silt etc. from homes
When: Beginning the week of Dec. 9
Where: Removal trucks will collect debris from all county-maintained roadways (no municipal or CDOT roads) in the plains (east of U.S. 36 and Hwy 93)
Guidelines:
- Debris piles should be 3ft from the side of the roadway to allow for any snow removal operations
- Do not block the roadway, waterways or any culverts with debris
- In order to follow state laws, and to allow for composting operations, please separate debris into 4 piles:
- General household debris
- Electronics, appliances and household hazardous waste
- Woody debris (vegetation)
- Mud, silt, sand and rock
- Please have all eligible debris to the roadside by Dec. 9
The debris haulers have a potential reach of about 8ft from the edge of the road lane; for that reason, debris piles should be as close to the 3ft boundary along the road as possible so it can be reached and collected.
If time and weather permit debris collection trucks may make multiple trips up and down roads. However, we encourage residents to move debris to the road as soon as possible. There is no harm in leaving a debris pile near the roadway for a week or more before the truck makes it to your area.
Please remember to be cautious when driving while these large debris haulers are on the road. There will be signage and flaggers warning of the presence of the trucks, but slower speeds and heightened awareness will help lessen any problems on the tight mountain curves.
For any questions about debris pickup in the plains, please contact Resource Conservation at 720-564-2222 ordebrisresponseteam@bouldercounty.org.
