WALSENBURG — A hearing where two fugitive brothers from Florida were expected to enter a plea or advise a judge of the resolution of their Colorado case has been postponed.
Ryan Dougherty, 21, and Dylan Dougherty, 26, appeared separately in district court Monday morning. The Pueblo Chieftain reported that Chief District Judge Claude Appel admonished deputies for transporting Dylan Dougherty 45 miles from Pueblo to Walsenburg, despite an order that he appear via video.
Deputies moved Dylan Dougherty to Pueblo after an alleged escape attempt was foiled.
The next hearing for both brothers is set for Feb. 16. They and sister Lee Grace Dougherty are accused of shooting at a police officer in Florida and authorities in Colorado, as well as robbing a Georgia bank.
