CO - Possible Serial Shooter Has Colorado Drivers on Edge #1

Jmo, I don't think the FBI would normally get involved in a single random shooting. I think their assistance might mean that LE thinks the combination of shootings are connected.

DD came back from Laramie last night, and I was nervous as a prostitute in church until she got home. I have lived in Ft Collins, Longmont, Boulder, Coal Creek Canyon, and Lafayette, and I promise, not once did my car windows shatter. Now, once at a party in Evergreen, some people were having a water balloon fight. One of the water balloons landed on the windshield of a Mercedes, and it did shatter. It was a hot day, and the water was cold. What a bunch of horse pucky. They're endangering lives by not calling this what it apparently is. I get that they don't want panic, but people need to be informed.

I am right there with ya spamelope. That area was my stomping ground for years and I have many relatives and friends there. My DD is driving that stretch today and I will be very happy when she is on the other side!!! Its nerve wracking!

(Maybe I should go out for a bike ride with my helmet and bullet proof gear... I could use an e-bike which looks like a regular bike, and when he fires, hit the nitrous and chase his a## down!...........just kidding, probably time to take a break, lol)

Eta: :facepalm:

It at least requires à thorough investigation, that's for sure! Maybe the FBI will end up "ruling out" a connection...who knows...

The woman was shot Southeast of Fort Collins on the entrance ramp from Harmony Road to Southbound I25. The location where Jacoby was shot is 3.5 miles East of I25 on Harmony then one mile South on CR 15.

Footwarrior,

Thanks for that. I'm trying to locate these points on a Google map to be posted shortly. I'm showing the Jacoby (cyclist) shooting just where you so precisely described it. But for the woman that you refer to who was shot, I'm going by news footage that repeatedly focuses on a "263" mile marker at the side of the southbound side of I25. I hadn't seen that reference to "the entrance ramp from Harmony Road to Southbound I25" before (might have missed it). That entrance ramp is 1.4 miles north of the 263 mile marker. Which one do you figure I should be using?

Here's the link to a Google map with some - but not yet all - of the case points included.

Click on the map markers for more. I'll keep adding to the map, but you won't need fresh URL's to access it. The same one should work for the duration of the case.

Please let me know if you see errors or have suggestions for improvements or additions.

Thank you so much for your mapssistance here, Forager. I noticed you've added points since the screen shots. Maybe an WSer with a nice app could add screen caps too.

If this is the same perp, is he getting more brazen about his gripe? Seems to have become focused around big agri fields, that last one not far from a police station, based on a first quick look so a bit out there perhaps? The first incident is across from a plaza with a mixed martial arts studio, which often goes with the shooting types too. After that, the incidents are all further away. Could that first one across from the mr. money store have been the day he got a taste for it, haphazard, then after that focused?

"At this point, we do not know if there is any tie between the traffic murder being investigated by the Windsor Police and the shooting of a motorist in Larimer County last month," Larimer County Sheriff Justin Smith said Tuesday morning. "We have been and remain in communication with the Windsor Police as their investigation evolves."

Jacoby, a long-time Windsor resident, rode his bike every day. He left behind a family, although Windsor Police Lt. Richard Higuera said he didn't know how many children he had."
