B
My
name
is
Jennifer
siplit
c-I-p-l-e-t
I'm,
the
senior
Communications
manager
for
Public,
Safety
and
critical
response
for
the
city
of
Boulder,
and
thank
you
all
for
coming
out.
Today
we
are
going
to
have
a
few
comments
by
Boulder
police
chief
Harold,
followed
by
some
comments
from
deputy
chief
Fred
Fern,
and
we
have
director
of
Parks
and
Recreation
Ali
Rhodes
with
us
today.
We'll
take
a
few
questions
following
their
comments
and
then
later
this
afternoon
we
will
be
sending
out
a
press
release
for
your
information
to
follow
up
on
everything.
That's
been
said
here
today.
C
C
Unfortunately,
we
had
a
male
suspect
who
has
now
been
arrested,
repeatedly
drive
through
this
park,
targeting
people
that
were
in
the
park
in
the
early
morning.
Hours
I,
don't
know
how
we
escaped
this
morning's
event
without
significant
injuries
and
death
to
the
people
in
this
park
this
morning.
C
I
also
want
to
really
ask
the
community
if
they
were
a
witness
to
this
incident.
Would
you
please
contact
the
Border
Police
Boulder
Police
Department,
with
any
information
that
you
have
again?
We
are
so
lucky
not
to
have
significant
injuries
to
multiple
people.
Deputy
chief
Redfern
is
going
to
run
you
through
the
chain
of
events
that
happened
this
morning.
I
also
think
it's
very
important
for
transparency
to
get
as
much
information
out
to
the
community,
so
they
know
what's
going
on
in
the
community,
so
we
are
going
to
be
very
transparent.
C
What
we
know
right
now,
I
always
like
to
caution
everybody,
that
this
is
all
preliminary
and
we're
working
with
the
District
Attorney's
office
to
secure
secure
charges.
The
appropriate
charges
on
this
suspect
and
I
really
do
appreciate
you
getting
this
message
out
to
the
community.
I
am
going
to
turn
this
over
over
to
deputy
chief
Redfern.
Who
will
give
you
a
play-by-play
of
the
incident
this
morning?
I'll
be
glad
to
stay
here
and
answer
as
many
questions
as
possible.
Thank
you
for
coming
out
fish.
A
Good
afternoon,
as
the
chief
said,
my
name
is
Steve
Redford
I'm,
a
deputy
police
chief
here
at
Boulder,
Police
I'm,
going
to
give
you
a
little
bit
of
information
about
what
happened
and
then
some
information
about
the
person
that
we
arrested
this
morning.
So
this
morning,
around
6
26
a.m.
Boulder
Communications
received
a
call
saying
that
there
had
been
a
truck
in
the
park
here
behind
me,
trying
to
run
individuals
over
at
that
time.
A
The
person
told
dispatch
that
this
had
happened
five
minutes
ago
and
indicated
that
it
was
not
in
progress
about
6
30.
We
received
another
phone
call
saying
the
truck
was
back
in
the
park
actively
trying
to
run
people
over
our
officers
responded,
emergent
and
we're
here
within
about
a
minute
when
they
got
here.
The
truck
was
no
longer
in
the
park.
A
Witnesses
advised
that
the
truck
left
in
a
South
Direction,
our
numerous
officers
set
up
in
the
area
we
had
our
drone
Team
come
out
and
we
began
to
search
for
the
vehicle
a
short
time
later.
The
vehicle
was
found
to
the
south
of
this
location
off
of
15th
and
Arapahoe
in
a
parking
lot.
The
vehicle
had
sustained
significant
damage,
which
is
consistent
with
the
vehicle
hitting
some
of
the
objects
in
the
park
behind
me.
A
At
that
point,
our
investigation
into
the
owner
of
that
vehicle
commenced
to
try
to
figure
out
who
was
driving
the
truck
today,
while
that
was
happening,
officers
continued
their
search
in
the
area
and
located
the
owner
of
the
vehicle
nearby
this
location
on
foot.
The
subject
was
indeed
the
owner
of
the
car
and
came
to
the
police
department.
To
answer
some
questions
through
the
great
work
of
our
Patrol
officers
as
well
as
detectives,
a
probable
cause
was
established
to
charge
the
owner
of
the
vehicle.
A
Who
was
the
driver
at
the
time
of
this
incident,
with,
at
a
minimum
four
counts
of
attempted
first
degree:
murder
for
intentionally
trying
to
run
over
people
in
the
park.
What
we
did
learn
as
well
from
the
time
the
incident
in
the
park
happened
to
the
time
he
was
taken.
It
was
contacted
nearby.
This
person
also
broke
into
an
animal
hospital.
That
is
a
block
or
two
east
of
here.
He
injured
himself
in
that
process
and
we
will
be
exploring
charges
for
that
burglary.
A
As
well
of
notes,
we're
also
investigating
the
charges
of
driving
under
the
influence
of
Narcotics,
specifically
methamphetamine
as
well.
So
the
initial
four
charges
that
he
was
arrested
on
today
are
the
most
serious
we
believe,
but
we're
exploring
other
charges
as
well.
The
name
of
the
person
that
we
arrested
today
is
Bruce.
A
Alvey
which
is
a-l-v-e-y.
A
426
of
79
is
his
date
of
birth.
The
information
we
received
is
that
the
person
was
Mr.
Alvey
was
living
out
of
that
truck
that
he
used
in
this
attack
and
was
did
not
have
a
permanent,
fixed
address.
A
That
is
kind
of
the
brief
rundown
of
how
things
transpired
this
morning
and
we'll
I
believe
take
any
questions
at
this
time.
A
So
it
it
it's
a
good
question.
We
don't
know
his
intentions
other
than
the
fact
that
he
clearly
came
to
this
park
for
some
reason
or
another,
some
of
the
individuals
that
were
in
the
park
at
the
time
we
believe
were
unhoused,
but
we
don't
know
if
that
was
his
specific
intent
or
not
was
something
we're
still
working
on.
A
A
A
Amazingly,
there
were
not
even
as
far
as
I'm
aware,
minor
injuries
and,
and
we
had
people
jumping
out
of
the
way
of
of
the
truck
and
things
like
that,
so
I,
no
one,
no
one
was
struck
with
the
vehicle,
which
there
was
more
than
one
very
close
call
where
literally
people
were
jumping
out
of
the
way
running
running
for
their
lives,
essentially
go
ahead.
That.
C
Great
question:
we're
still
investigating
that
we
don't
know
if
he
has
any
close
contact
with
people
in
the
park.
I
did
fail
to
mention
that
we
are
going
to
close
the
park
for
approximately
two
weeks,
based
on
a
an
emergency
order.
We
may
have
structural
damage
from
the
vehicle,
striking
some
pillars
and
concrete
poles
within
the
park.
Obviously
we
have
a
lot
of
damage
within
the
park
that
needs
to
be
addressed
as
soon
as
possible,
so
we
don't
have
further
injuries
because
of
the
damage
caused
by
the
vehicle.
A
A
B
All
right,
thank
you.
If
there's
no
other
questions
we'll
go
ahead
and
send
out
that
press
release
that
I
mentioned
later
on
this
afternoon,
I
do
want
to
offer
the
opportunity
to
Ali
Rose.
If
there's
anything
you
would
like
to
add,
or
you
feel
like,
we
got
the
information
off
that
Parks
and
Rec
would
like
to
give
okay.
