A deputy was asked to provide extra patrol by a resident in the 300 block of 7th Street in Grand Junction.

Wednesday, July 16th

A deputy, the Jefferson Fire Department and personnel from the Greene County Emergency Medical Services all responded to a reported structure fire in the 1100 block of J Avenue. A steel frame shed owned by Lynn Hardin of 1119 J Avenue, was fully engulfed in flames when the deputy arrived on scene. According to Hardin, the 36X38 foot steel building housed several snowmobiles and numerous tools. A damage estimate will be determined after an inventory of the structure. Hardin reported that he was burning a wood pile earlier in the day, but was unsure if that was the cause of the building fire.

In all cases when a defendant has been charged, this is merely an accusation, and all  defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
