A 25-year-old student from the University of Colorado - Colorado Springs campus is now in custody on suspicion of killing two individuals in a dormitory room. On Monday morning, Colorado Springs police announced the arrest of Nicholas Jordan.
According to the authorities, the suspect and the victims were acquaintances. Claiming it was "not a random assault on the school or other students at the university," the Colorado Springs Police Department spoke out.
Crestone House in the Alpine Village neighborhood was the scene of a shooting early Friday morning, killing a 24-year-old male and a 26-year-old female. Samuel Knopp, a Parker resident and enrolled UCCS student, and Celie Rain Montgomery, a Pueblo resident, were named over the weekend.
According to Chris Valentine, a spokesperson at UCCS, Jordan is a student there and is from Detroit. Late Friday afternoon, police allegedly acquired an arrest warrant for him on two first-degree murder charges. On Monday morning, he was apprehended by law enforcement in the 4900 block of Cliff Point Circle East. Following a traffic stop, he was brought to the El Paso County Jail. His arrest picture is still unavailable.
Their investigation is still ongoing, according to CSPD. Call (719) 444-7000 if you have any information that might aid investigators in their investigation but have not yet talked with the police. Call (719) 634-STOP (7867) or 1-800-222-8477 to speak with a Crime Stoppers agent who can take your anonymous tip.
On Monday afternoon, the university has planned what it is referring to as a healing march. Anybody in the Colorado Springs region who is interested in taking part is welcome to show up at the Roaring Fork dining hall at 2 of the clock in the afternoon to pay their respects to the victims. Prominent figures expected to deliver statements include UCCS Chancellor Jennifer Sobanet, UCCS Chief of Police Dewayne McCarver, and student body president Axel Brown.
In northeastern Colorado Springs, you may find the UCCS campus situated along Austin Bluffs Parkway. As part of the University of Colorado system, it is one of four colleges. The University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora, Boulder, and Denver are the others.
