Boulder County, CO – A large-scale SWAT operation spanning several Front Range communities wrapped up Tuesday morning after law enforcement executed nine search warrants tied to an ongoing grand jury investigation.
According to the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office, tactical operations began around 7 a.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 22, at multiple residences and storage locations across unincorporated Adams and Boulder Counties, and the cities of Denver, Westminster, Wheat Ridge, Federal Heights, and Johnstown.
By 8:45 a.m., all sites had been secured, and officials confirmed “several arrests” were made. Authorities stressed there is no threat to the public, though the case remains active and under investigation.
Search warrants were served at the following locations:
• 14000 blk N. Pecos St., unincorporated Adams County
• 3500 blk W. 64th Ave., unincorporated Adams County
• 16000 blk 104th Ave., unincorporated Adams County
• 15000 blk Huron St., unincorporated Adams County
• 3500 blk E. 160th Ave., unincorporated Adams County
• 3700 blk Owens St., Wheat Ridge
• 8900 blk Federal Blvd., Federal Heights
• 400 blk Gateway Dr., Johnstown
• 2100 blk 21st St., unincorporated Boulder County
The Boulder County District Attorney’s Office said the operation is part of a grand jury investigation, and formal indictments are expected to be announced once charges are unsealed. No injuries were reported during the coordinated operation, which involved over a dozen local and federal agencies, including the FBI–Denver, Colorado State Patrol, and multiple county sheriff’s offices.
Traffic delays occurred near some search sites, but law enforcement has since cleared the areas.
