GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colorado ” Four suspects who are thought to be involved in some ” or perhaps all ” 38 burglary cases throughout Garfield County over the past 17 months were arrested in the past week, the Glenwood Springs Police Department says.

As many as six more arrests are expected to follow in the coming days.

In all, six arrest warrants were issued last week in connection to a string of recent burglaries, including those at several downtown Glenwood businesses, police say.



The Carbondale Police Department is in the process of attaining four additional arrest warrants in connection with some of the recent burglaries there. Some of the cases may overlap.

“The first arrests were made last Friday,” Glenwood Springs police Lt. Bill Kimminau said. “It’s been ongoing as we can find them. Some of them are still floating around.”
