FRISCO, Colo. (CBS4) - The Summit County Sheriff's Office is investigating a fight involving an off-duty Frisco police officer that happened last Friday.
The sheriff's office said deputies responded to a report of a fight in the 1500 block of Lone Pine Circle near the 7000 building around 11 p.m.
"The caller reported to Summit County Dispatch that an officer identifying himself as Daniel Sullivan contacted their unit regarding a noise complaint," the sheriff's office said in a statement.
