ADAMS COUNTY, Colo. — The Adams County Sheriff’s Office (ACSO) is looking for a suspect accused of shooting a man in the chest in a drive-by shooting in Adams County Monday night.
The shooting happened in the 7600 block of Pecos Street around 8:30 p.m. That is near the Pecos Street exit off US 36 just east of Westminster in Adams County.
A man was shot in the chest and taken to the hospital in critical condition, according to the sheriff’s office.
ACSO said they don’t have a good description of the suspect or the vehicle they were in, only that they were described as driving a white or silver full-sized truck.
Those who needed to drive in the area Monday night were asked to find alternate routes as Pecos Street was shut down in both directions between West 76th Avenue and Elmwood Street while ACSO conducted their investigation.
