Denver District Attorney Bill Ritter, Jr. has filed charges today in
connection with the robbery and kidnapping of a woman and her two children
last month. The incident occurred in the 2100 block of West 30th
Avenue at about 8:30 a.m., January 14, 2001. The victim was forced out of
her vehicle at knifepoint, and a man drove away with the victim's two
children still in the vehicle. The vehicle later crashed into a tree in
the 3700 block of Quivas Street and the suspect fled the scene. The
children were both injured.
Dony Salazar (DOB: 9-17-82) is charged with three counts of kidnapping
(F2 and F3), aggravated robbery (F3), three counts of first
degree aggravated motor vehicle theft (F4), two counts of vehicular
assault (F5), and menacing (F5).
Salazar remains at large, and a warrant has been issued for his arrest.
The issuance of an at-large warrant enables any law enforcement agency in
the country to arrest Salazar, and it places his name on the National
Crime Information Computer.
