OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

On September 2, 2024, at approximately 1 p.m., Glenwood Springs Police Department officers patrolling the Glenwood Meadows Shopping Center recognized 55-year-old Richard Grande, who had an outstanding felony warrant related to firearms charges. When officers attempted to contact Grande, he drew a firearm. The officers retreated, and one officer discharged their weapon, striking Grande.
.
As Grande moved toward his vehicle, the officers repositioned and engaged him with additional gunfire. Grande sought cover behind a vehicle, and officers maintained their positions until additional resources arrived. Upon approach, first responders pronounced Grande deceased at the scene. Investigators recovered a high-capacity firearm and believe Grande had access to additional ammunition. The officer involved has been placed on administrative leave, per department protocol.
.
The Garfield County Sheriff's Office, with assistance from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, is conducting the investigation.
