The suspect lived about 70 miles away from the Bloomberg ranch. He had no connection to the Blomberg’s or his victim. According to the police, he was fired from his job as a handyman. And evicted from his home a day before the attack and kidnapping.
“We’re deeply grateful to the Rio Blanco County Sheriff’s office, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, Wyoming law enforcement, the FBI, and other individuals for their swift and heroic action in this case in ensuring that no lives were lost, and that the victim has been rescued and safely returned to her family,” Ty Trippet the Bloomberg’s spokesperson said in a statement.
