”Peeping Tom” Allegedly Shoots At People In Fort Collins

The Fort Collins Police Department is investigating an incident in which an alleged peeper fired shots at a group of people who confronted him.

That's according to a post on the Fort Collins Police Services Facebook page.

According to police, the incident started around 8:30 p.m., when someone reported that a man who was up in a tree was looking into a window at a home on Heritage Circle.  Someone confronted the suspect, who then fled the scene on a dark blue bicycle.

Police say no one was injured in the incident, although some minor property damage was reported. Police are describing the suspect as a medium to heavy-set Hispanic man, wearing all black clothing and a white bandana.
