Missing Colorado woman Natalie Bollinger found dead after getting restraining order

BOULDER, Colo. — Authorities have released the name of a teenager whose body was found north of Denver.

The Boulder Daily Camera reports 19-year-old Natalie Bollinger, of Broomfield, was reported missing Thursday and was found dead in a wooded area near a street in unincorporated Adams County the following day.

Sheriff's officials say her death is being investigated as a homicide but have not said how she was killed.

Broomfield police say they have spoken with a man against whom Bollinger had obtained a permanent restraining order in mid-December, but no arrests have been made.

CBS Denver reports that Bollinger claimed on social media about two weeks ago that she had once tried to help the man, but that he began harassing her. She claimed the man "slept behind her work for weeks" and threatened to kill himself in front of her, the station reports.

Broomfield Police wouldn't tell the station whether the man was suspected in Bollinger's death.
