    Police released surveillance footage from an area business of the suspect in the days following the shooting. The agency also initially reported the incident occurred after a dispute between the two parties, and was asking the community to consider the suspect armed and dangerous .

    “It is important to note that the actions of a single individual have permanently altered the lives of several victims, their families and our community. We hope that this arrest is a small comfort to the family and friends of Mr. Baez Morales,” said Fort Collins Police Chief Jeff Swoboda in a release. “Grays brought violence to our community and after weeks of diligent work leading to his arrest we hope those affected feel as if this is a step toward a measure of justice.”

    According to Colorado court records, Grays is being held without bond. An attorney in his case had not been listed as of about 2 p.m. on Thursday.

    The Fort Collins agency said Grays will be extradited back to Colorado and the investigation into the shooting is ongoing. Anyone with additional information about this deadly shooting is asked to contact the Fort Collins police tip line at 970-416-2825.
