Witness shares video of man accused of damaging cars throughout Colorado Springs neighborhood
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV) – A Colorado Springs man faces multiple charges for two incidents in and around his Broadmoor neighborhood.
Springs police arrested Brian Edwards May 7, 2024, after they found him damaging multiple cars with a baseball bat and other tools in the 300 block of Ramona Avenue.
Charging documents show Edwards allegedly used a number of tools in his attack including a rock, baseball bat, and a hammer. They said the total damage comes out to roughly $2050.
He’s charged with Assault in the Second Degree, Menacing, and Criminal Mischief.
Edwards is also facing charges for a February incident where he allegedly hit an off-duty Colorado Springs police officer with his car.
The officer was not seriously hurt but his 16-year-old dog died.
Charging documents in that case show Edwards claimed the incident was a result of mechanical issues with his car but evidence at the scene and an eyewitness statement suggest the incident could have been intentional.
Edwards faces charges of second-degree assault and aggravated cruelty to animals in that case.
Edwards will make his next court appearance Tuesday, May 16.
