Michael Lewis, 71, was shot and killed in the early morning hours of August 25, 2021, in the Sunridge Circle neighborhood of Broomfield, Colorado, after confronting someone breaking into cars. A United States Army veteran, Lewis was known by his family as someone who lived to protect others, and the shooting occurred when he approached a person tampering with vehicles. Lewis was struck in the head and pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators tied 22-year-old Joseph Maestas-Sanchez to the scene using a fingerprint and GPS data from an ankle monitor he was wearing for a prior offense. Neighbor Ring doorbell video captured two vehicles in the area with individuals checking car handles and showed Lewis running after one of the cars before a gunshot was heard. Maestas-Sanchez was arrested on August 27, 2021, and charged in connection with the shooting.

Has anyone in the Sunridge Circle area seen suspicious activity around that August night or have information about vehicle break-ins then?
