Shortly after posting about the death of CU Boulder student Jacob Kulton at Breckenridge, we learned about another death resulting from an accident on the Colorado ski slopes. The victim was Dr. Meir Wetzler, a nationally known cancer specialist based in Buffalo, New York. Thus far, the circumstances of the...
There are plenty of playful Facebook photos of Josh and Leah Cabrera — and even a comic illustration of the pair. These images only make the way their lives ended seem that much more tragic. According to the Colorado Springs Police Department, Josh, 35, shot and killed Leah, 33, before...
Avanti Food & Beverage, the creation of Patrick O'Neill and Rob Hahn, opens on Monday, July 13 in Lower Highland. Described as a food hall, a stand-alone food court, a food-truck rally minus the exhaust fumes and a food-and-booze lover's heaven, it packs seven restaurant concepts from seven different chefs...
The gallery that accompanies substitute teacher Matthew Lonie's Facebook page, which remains online at this writing, includes a handful of photos in which he's the only person in the frame. However, the majority of shots, including his current profile photo, feature children — sometimes alone, often posing with him. These...
In our post about the decision not to charge officers in the shooting of Jessie Hernandez, a seventeen-year-old whose death behind the wheel of a stolen car inspired the Denver Police Department to change its policy allowing officers to shoot into moving vehicles, we noted that Denver District Attorney Mitch...

Have you seen a black 2006 Toyota Tacoma like the one above, sporting Colorado license plate 966-MFH? If so, call the police in Denver or Aurora and get the hell out of its way, because the driver of the vehicle was allegedly at the center of multiple crimes yesterday, including a...
Back in June 2014, we declared a Denver Police Department video showing law-enforcement training for active-shooter scenarios to be the bloodiest public-service announcement ever. "The footage includes gunshots, explosions, hysterical screaming, open wounds, draining blood and bodies everywhere, supplemented by looks behind the scenes and one participant's analysis of what...
Last November, we introduced you to Eric Brandt, who's well-known in the metro area for riding a bicycle while displaying a giant hand, complete with extended middle finger, that's emblazoned with the phrase "FUCK COPS." At the time, Brandt's attorney, David Lane, had just filed a lawsuit against the City...
Colorado Representative Jared Polis is considered to be among the most marijuana-friendly legislators elected to national office. Earlier this year, for instance, he was cited as a role model by the #IVoteCannabis campaign. But that doesn't mean pot activists universally support his policies. Case in point: He's already getting pushback...
The idea for the new palette-based stage outside at Black Shirt Brewing came from owner Chad Miller’s three-year-old son. His son, who is a musically inclined toddler, was making Miller replay music videos on Youtube for him one night. In one that was played over and over, Miller began to...
Rioja celebrated its tenth anniversary at the end of last year — and then owners Beth Gruitch and Jennifer Jasinski promptly closed the place for the better part of January to bring the dining room up to date. Jasinski and Gruitch were so pleased with the results at their newest...

This past weekend, my sister was visiting from Seattle. With a new boyfriend in tow, she wanted to show him all of the must-see Colorado sites possible during the quick, three-day trip they had planned. Of course, this miniature See Denver! excursion included visits to Lakeside and Casa Bonita. When...
In the United States, Sudan is known mostly as the place the Lost Boys fled and as the most recent country to bifurcate into two separate nations, with South Sudan becoming the newest country in the world. But Sudanese food is mostly an unknown quantity, especially here in Denver. Sudan...
If the arrest of eighteen-year-old Brittany Lynn Storms for allegedly entering a home illegally while “out of it on drugs” sounds familiar, it should. Earlier this month, we noted that Boulder County District Attorney Stan Garnett had decided not to criminally charge a homeowner who fatally shot Roberto Zamroa, a nineteen-year-old...
As we've discussed in this space, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment is the state agency that most frequently raises alarms about marijuana use. No surprise, then, that the CDPHE's new survey of marijuana use cites concerns about the percentage of children exposed to marijuana and the decreasing...
The best thing about street food is that the only utensils you normally need are your hands. Modern food trucks rallying at well-planned setups like Civic Center Eats, where shaded tables and chairs are provided, can serve messier fare that requires a knife, fork or spoon, but if you want...
When family members take stories of what they see as injustice to the media, they're obviously hoping for a sympathetic story to result — and Fox31 certainly gave the parents of Alicia Zamaro, a 22-year-old charged with attempted murder against her baby, Jerricho Curry, plenty of opportunities to state their...

I’m not the first to fall under the spell of tonkotsu ramen, with its mysteriously alluring pork broth that hides a world of flavor in every white, cloudy spoonful. Jeff Osaka, chef-owner of the month-old Osaka Ramen, the latest entrant in Denver’s ramen war, has spent years thinking about the...
Our coverage of 4/20 weekend raids at two Denver marijuana clubs highlights a continuing area of concern for cannabis activists: While locals and visitors can legally consume pot recreationally in Denver, they aren't allowed to do so in social settings outside private homes. Now, Mason Tvert and attorney Brian Vicente, the two...
The regulars on Stoner Hill tell legends about the place. They say the gentle mound’s grassy curve conceals garbage or haunted graves — maybe both. It’s the kind of spot discussed with some reverence in boxcars and squats across the country’s traveling circuits. Even Google Maps can pinpoint Stoner Hill...
"It's always the right time to do the wrong thing," Nikki Lane sings at the outset of All or Nothin', her latest album — a rousing blend of classic country, roots music and category-defying ass-kicking produced by the Black Keys' Dan Auerbach.
