Task Force To Hold Media Briefing On Random Northern Colorado Shootings

LOVELAND, Colo. (CBS4) - For the first time in weeks the special task force investigating a series of roadside shootings in Northern Colorado will make an announcement.

The task force spokesperson wouldn't say much about Thursday's briefing -- only that it's going to be an "overall status update." It'll be the first time the task force has talked since June.

Many questions remain unanswered in the unsolved cases. No arrests have been made in any of the three shootings that claimed the lives of two men and seriously hurt a woman.

The first incident happened in April when 20-year-old Cori Romero was shot while driving in Fort Collins near Interstate 25. That case was linked to the shooting death of 47-year-old John Jacoby in May. Jacoby was riding his bike in Windsor when he was gunned down. Two weeks later, 65-year-old William Connole was killed while walking in Loveland.

At the last task force update investigators were looking for a vehicle of interest. It's possible there will be more information about that truck on Thursday.

The media briefing is scheduled for 11 a.m. at the Loveland Police Department.
