Search robots corner barricaded man
Oct 2nd
At approximately 11:00 a.m. today, Oct. 2, dispatchers received a call from a woman reporting that her ex-boyfriend had broken into her home in the 3100 block of E. Euclid Avenue and that he had access to weapons. The residence was unoccupied at the time of the break-in but the suspect was still inside.
Responding officers and the Boulder Police SWAT team attempted to make contact with the suspect but were unable to get a response. A search robot was deployed inside the house, and officers were able to see the suspect in a southeast bedroom, sitting on the floor. He appeared to be incapacitated but occasionally moved his arms. He remained in this position throughout the incident.
At about 1:50 p.m., a second robot was sent inside the house to help insure that the suspect was not holding a gun in his hand. After receiving the safety information they needed, officers were able to enter the home and apprehend the suspect. A handgun was found nearby. The suspect was transported to Boulder Community Hospital for a medical evaluation.
The suspect is identified as a David Scott Wilson of Henderson, CO, DOB June 12, 1971. He was charged with Felony Second-Degree Burglary, Felony First-Degree Criminal Trespass, and Misdemeanor Harassment with a Domestic Violence enhancement.
The case number for this incident is 12-13516.
