👮‍♂️A Message to the Community: Standing Together Against Intimate Partner Violence👮‍♂️

Dear Greeley Community,

I felt it important to address the troubling incident that occurred this week in Greeley and ensure that those affected by intimate partner violence know there are resources available to help you. Yesterday morning, shortly after 8:00 am on Halloween, Greeley Police Officers were dispatched to the UCHealth Greeley Hospital in Southwest Greeley following a shooting report.

When officers arrived on the scene, they found the victim—a 35-year-old woman who had been shot multiple times. She showed remarkable resilience by seeking medical help and walking into the hospital herself. Thankfully, she is now under expert care and is expected to survive. The suspect, a 38-year-old man and the ex-partner of the victim, fled the scene before officers arrived.

Following the attack, the suspect was quickly located at a residence in Evans, Colorado. There, he set fire to his vehicle, barricaded himself inside the home, and was later found deceased by SWAT Team members. The investigation into the events and motives behind this attempted murder is ongoing.

First and foremost, I want to express our deep gratitude that the victim survived and applaud her incredible strength and courage in the face of this cowardly attack. My family, the Greeley Police Department, and I extend our thoughts, prayers, and unwavering support to her and her family during her recovery.

In light of this tragic incident, I also want to remind the Greeley community that there are local resources and nonprofits available to assist those impacted by intimate partner violence. This issue affects people of all genders, sexual orientations, races, religions, and backgrounds. It is not only a personal matter, but one of collective concern that requires our community's vigilance, compassion, and action.

Intimate partner violence (also known as domestic violence) can manifest in many forms, and it’s crucial to recognize the early warning signs of an abusive relationship. Be vigilant for these signs in your own relationships and those of family and friends, including:

*Frequent Monitoring: Abusive partners may track your whereabouts, check your phone, or constantly question your location without reason.

*Isolation: Abusers may limit contact with friends and family, leaving victims feeling alone and solely dependent on them.

*Extreme Jealousy: Excessive jealousy or possessiveness may signal dangerous, controlling behavior.

*Emotional Abuse: Manipulation, belittling, or gaslighting can be as damaging as physical violence.

*Physical Abuse: Any form of physical violence, such as hitting, slapping, or threats, is unacceptable and should not be tolerated by any partner.

If you or someone you know is experiencing any of these behaviors, please know that you are not alone and help is available. We encourage you to reach out to local resources or, if outside the Greeley area, search “domestic violence help near me” for services in your vicinity. For immediate help, please call 911.
