Several Old Colorado City businesses still closed after suspected arson
OLD COLORADO CITY, Colo. (KRDO) As many businesses are just regaining steam following pandemic restrictions, a handful of store owners are forced to close their doors once again after a suspected arsonist set two separate fires early Thursday morning on Colorado Avenue.
The owners of The House of Flags were the first victims of the night. Just after midnight, police believe an arsonist broke into the side of their business, near Colorado Ave and 29th Street. They set several small fires inside, causing damage to their building and destroying tens of thousands of dollars worth of inventory. They also stole all the bills from the business s cash box though they left rolls of coins, computers, and televisions behind.
It’s begun to return — the body heat, the mic checks of the bass drum, the loud enchantment of music pouring through a venue. Live music has been coming back
