A late-night encounter in Broomfield led to four arrests and the discovery of a stash of drugs and weapons, according to police. Around 1 a.m. Thursday, a Broomfield officer contacted four men near W. 134th Circle and Alcott Drive — a neighborhood that’s recently been hit by vehicle thefts and trespassing. Following the investigation, officers seized more than 52 grams of cocaine, small amounts of Xanax and Oxycodone, two firearms, and loaded magazines.
The four men, all in their mid-20s, face a range of charges. One had two outstanding warrants in Jefferson County and Lakewood. Another was arrested for being a previous offender in possession of a handgun. A third suspect faces charges of prohibited weapon use and obstructing an officer. The fourth man, currently on parole for vehicular homicide, had an outstanding warrant and was allegedly caught with the bulk of the drugs. All were booked into custody as the investigation continues.
