A man wanted as a suspect in a Loveland incident, which included at least one gunshot being fired and a car crashing into a storefront, turned himself in to police.
Cody Brubaker, 20, surrendered to police about noon today at the Loveland Police Department, police said in a media release.
Brubaker is suspected of being involved in a marijuana deal that went bad and causing a chain of events Monday night including a fight for a gun, a missed shot at close range and a car driving into a Loveland storefront, police said.
Police said Brubaker and Terrence Straughter, 21, both of Loveland, tried to rob a man after arranging to buy pot from him in a store’s parking lot.
During a struggle for a pistol, the driver put the car in gear and it rolled into the front of the store in the 100 block of East 37th Street. The would-be robbers got out of the car as one of them fired a shot at the driver and ran away, police said.
No one was injured in the shooting or crash, police said. The driver was not named by police.
Straughter was arrested on Tuesday in Greeley. He’s been charged with attempted first-degree murder, aggravated robbery, possession of a weapon by a previous offender, and felony menacing, police said.
Brubaker is being held at the Larimer County Jail on suspicion of aggravated robbery and conspiracy of attempted first-degree murder.
