Bicyclist Shot To Death In Windsor Was Park Caretaker For The Town
WINDSOR, Colo. (CBS4) - Police in Windsor are investigating a fatal shooting of a bicyclist Monday morning.
The shooting occurred at approximately 10 a.m. as the bicyclist was traveling northbound on County Road 15 near County Road 72 northwest of Windsor Lake.
"The victim was found by a passing motorist and emergency personnel were called to the scene at which time the individual was pronounced dead," police said in a statement.
The victim has been identified as John Jacoby, 48, a part-time park caretaker with the Town of Windsor. Police initially thought he was a victim of a hit-and-run but then discovered he had been shot twice.
At a news conference Monday evening police said they don't have a suspect and they're looking at all possibilities such as road rage, a random shooting, or if it's related to windows being shot out on Interstate 25. They don't have any witnesses.
Police won't say where Jacoby was shot and they haven't determined if he was in motion on his bike when he was shot. They also refused to comment on any evidence.
Jacoby was well-known in the Windsor community.
The last homicide in Windsor was 8 years ago.
