EVERGREEN, Colo. – Deputies with the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office spent hours at the scene of a barricaded suspect in Evergreen Wednesday morning.
Deputies responded to a home in the 29000 block of Pine Road at about 1 a.m. after receiving a report about a disturbance.
There were initially three people in the home, in addition to the suspect, deputies said. All three suffered minor injuries after they were allegedly assaulted by the suspect with what is believed to be a sword, authorities said.
