Boulder police: suspects in June mall attacks in custody; department reports year-to-date crime declines
Summary
At the July 15 Downtown Management Commission meeting, Police Chief Steve Redfern said suspects in the June mall chain attacks and an assault on a performer remain in custody and that citywide crime is down year to date; officials described staffing changes, increased evening patrols and a community "Walk with a Cop" event July 23.
Police Chief Steve Redfern told the Downtown Management Commission on July 15 that suspects tied to the June chain attacks and an assault on a performer remain in custody.
"I'm happy to say he is still in custody on a $200,000 bond," Redfern said of the person arrested in the chain attacks, and said the person who assaulted the performer also remains in custody. "So we're working with the DA's office when those serious things pop up..."
Redfern said the department is fully staffed but has roughly 25 officers still in training and not yet cleared for solo patrol. He credited visible foot and bike patrols and technology for helping reduce crime and said the department's data analyst reported the city is down in every crime category year to date compared with last year.
