The latest news on the Seattle shootings can be found here and here. But what I want to know has to do with my previous post here. The guy was loaded for more than bear years ago in Colorado. What's with that?

A routine traffic stop by a Colorado County Sheriff's Department deputy lead to discovery of a handgun and

On May 12 at 3:45 p.m., Colorado County Sheriff's Deputy Jeff Head conducted a traffic stop on Highway 71 near Hildebrandt Road in Colorado County for speeding and illegal window tint. During the traffic stop, Head made contact with the driver and front seat passenger and detected the strong odor of marijuana inside the vehicle and also found two fully loaded pistol magazines under the leg of the back seat passenger.

Head immediately called for assistance to safely manage the situation. All occupants of the vehicle were checked for weapons. The back seat passenger was found to be wearing a shoulder holster under his sports jersey.

The driver was identified as Aaron Kyle Huff , 19, of Bastrop. The owner of the vehicle was the front seat passenger, Bryan Stanford Punchard, 22, of Bastrop. The back seat passenger was identified as Gary Yarbrough Brooks, 20, of Houston.

A vehicle search was conducted, which resulted in the recovery of a Glock .40 caliber handgun; less than one gram of crack cocaine; less than one gram of crushed crack cocaine; several large bottles of prescription codeine cough syrup totaling 5 lbs. 12 oz.; and various other containers with codeine syrup.

Uh, Dan, I believe it was Texas they are referring to.

yes it is Texas. I live in Wharton County just off HWY 71. Bastrop is outside Austin TX

Right. It was in Colorado County, Texas. There is no Colorado County in Colorado.

[Speculation]

Perhaps a gentleman with a similar name exists. Shocking isn't it. Maybe you should consider that most police reports, and thus news reports based upon them use the occupants/drivers drivers liscence location to state where the parties are from. Kyle is from Whitefish, MT not Texas.

Here is a link to the original article that ran in the Colorado Citizen on May 25, 2004:

The Kyle Huff responsible for the shootings was 28 at the time he committed those crimes. The Huff listed in the 2004 article was 19 at the time of his crime, making him 21 years old in 2006. These are very clearly two different people. The tiniest bit of critical thinking on your part would have led you to this conclusion. Great detective work dood.
