Suspicious Activity in the Town of Lyons

On September 15, 2024, at approximately 2:00 p.m. the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office received a report of suspicious activity that took place near the intersection of Estes Court and McConnell Drive in the Town of Lyons.

A male, described as white, scruffy face, and “big belly,” who was driving a 4-door dark blue midsize SUV, approached two juvenile females who were running a lemonade stand. This male made small talk with the girls while purchasing lemonade from them. The male appeared to be possibly “grooming” the girls by asking them questions and asking them to dance. When other adults arrived, the male would leave the area, but then would come back when the adults were gone.  

The vehicle has been identified by the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office, however, the male has yet to be identified. If anyone saw this vehicle and/or the male described, please reach out to Deputy Rosebrough at Lyons Middle High School or mrosebrough@bouldercounty.gov.

The Boulder County Sheriff’s Office recommends that if children are interacting with unknown adults, that adult supervision be close by. If the conversation or interaction feels strange or uncomfortable, be sure to have the children let an adult know and contact the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office as soon as possible.  

The associated Boulder County Sheriff’s Office case report number is: BCSO #24-04786.
