PRESS RELEASE
June 22, 2022

Following last night’s shooting at the Heron’s Nest RV Park; deputies from the Garfield County Sheriff’s Office went door-to-door to ensure everyone was unharmed, as well as collect additional statements.

Investigators will return today to complete our investigation by taking an aerial view of the scene with a drone.

We are fortunate that no one was injured by a random bullet fired in this densely populated area. The Garfield County Sheriff’s Office would like to thank all the first responders including various law enforcement agencies and CRFR who assisted in this incident including the Garfield County Emergency Communications Authority (dispatch) who received multiple “911” calls as the incident unfolded.

With the quick response of everyone involved, including the deputies who arrived on scene and were quickly able to contain Mr. Locke, a volatile situation was diffused.
