A woman who was allegedly kidnapped by her ex-boyfriend in Fort Collins was freed by Colby, Kan., police after she passed a note to a clerk at a hotel, officials say.
Colby SWAT team members also arrested Mark Tuckel Thursday night in Colby on a Fort Collins warrant for investigation of second-degree murder, burglary, kidnapping, and domestic violence, officials say.
Jennifer Courtney, 35, called police Monday saying that her ex-boyfriend was trying to break into her home to kill her, according to police.
On Thursday, a clerk at the Budget Inn Suites called police and said Courtney had given them a note asking them to contact her family, according to Rita Davis, Fort Collins police spokeswoman.
Courtney was taken to Citizen’s Medical Clinic where she was treated and released, Davis said.
Fort Collins authorities are seeking to extradite Tuckel back to Colorado.
