"Newspaper Theft Follows Report of Alleged Sexual Assault at Colorado Police Chief's Home"
A Colorado man was cited for stealing over 200 newspapers in Ouray County after a story about a reported sexual assault at the local police chief’s house was published. The newspapers were returned to the publisher, and the suspect, who is not associated with local law enforcement or the defendants in the sexual assault case, was cited for petty theft. The Colorado Bureau of Investigation continues to investigate the sexual assault case, and the Ouray County Plaindealer received over $2,000 in donations to reprint the stolen newspapers.
