Boulder police: Armed witness rescued woman from attempted murder outside church
Daily Camera Boulder News ^ | 07/31/2015 | Alex Burness

Police describe Heriberto Haro-Luna, drunk and incensed, confronting his recently estranged wife in a Boulder church parking lot, trapping her by the neck and threatening to slit her throat as she uttered final prayers.

It was just before 6 p.m. Thursday, and an employee of Sacred Heart of Jesus, at 14th Street and Mapleton Avenue, happened to be walking to his car — with his concealed handgun — as the confrontation simmered.

"He presented (the gun) and told the man to leave her alone," he added. "It was very fortunate he was there."

Seeing the weapon, police say, Haro-Luna fled the parking lot and was captured shortly thereafter at the corner of Broadway and Mapleton Avenue by officers who subdued him with a Taser.

Hmm. I haven’t heard about this on any of the major news outlets. Wonder why? Kudos to the armed citizen.

It’s amazing, isn’t it?

Stereotypes have roots in reality.

He really does look a deranged criminal from the Sierra Madre.

Hadn’t heard of this, but I don’t get the Camera anymore.

My GF walks a dog down there, we need to have a talk.

When I took my CCW class in Denver in 2010, there was a guy there who said he open carried in Boulder. Surprised all of us.
