Overview
- Colorado Parks and Wildlife began responding Monday to a reported possible drowning at the privately owned Monument Lake Resort in Las Animas County.
- CPW is leading the operation in partnership with the Las Animas County Sheriff’s Office and Las Animas County Emergency Management.
- CPW said it dispatched its Marine Evidence Recovery Team with a sonar-equipped boat and CBS reported the team included three officers.
- Officials have not released victim names, conditions, or an outcome, and news outlets differ on the resort’s exact location relative to Trinidad and Denver.
- A later local report said a single-boat crash occurred about 10:15 a.m. Monday and that three people were taken to hospital, but those details have not been confirmed by CPW and further updates are expected.
