COLORADO NATIONAL MONUMENT: Man Arrested for Dragging Dog to Death
Greg Crawford, the park’s chief of maintenance, went to work extra early on Wednesday, December 30th, to check out conditions on the park’s snowy Rim Rock Drive. When Crawford arrived at the park’s west entrance road around 4:20 a.m., he saw a grouping of unusual tire tracks, paw prints, and what he would later determine were rope marks near the entrance to the park. Crawford proceeded cautiously up the hill, noting that the prints indicated that the dog was walking next to the vehicle, then running, then being dragged. When he came to the first tunnel three miles up the hill, he found that the tracks stopped, then turned around, and that there was a body of a large dog lying in the snow with a rope around its neck. The dog, a German Shepherd – Blue Heeler mix, was otherwise in good condition, with a heavy coat of winter fur. Protection ranger Clint Forte joined him and began an investigation; the park’s VUA supervisor, Leo Dutilly, was called in to download surveillance tapes from the west entrance station which yielded evidence used in the investigation and eventually in an arrest warrant.
