Grand Junction, CO. - The Mesa County Sheriff’s Office is calling for the public’s assistance in identifying four individuals linked to a burglary and vandalism at the Elevated Smoke Shop in Grand Junction, Colorado.

In the early hours of Wednesday, May 1, 2024, at around 1:00 a.m., two individuals attempted to break into the Elevated Smoke Shop located at 507 30 Road. Although they were unsuccessful in entering the store, they inflicted significant damage to the property. Surveillance footage captured the attempt, showing the suspects trying various methods to gain entry.

The situation escalated the following day, on Thursday, May 2, 2024, at about 3:15 a.m., when four individuals, believed to include the original two, successfully broke into the shop. Security cameras recorded the group stealing merchandise and causing further damage to the property. All suspects were masked, but one notable suspect wore a distinctive red hoodie with a shark design, identifiable in both incidents.

Following the burglary, the group was seen fleeing on foot heading east, just north of I-70B. The Mesa County Sheriff’s Office has provided a description and surveillance images in hopes that community members can help identify the suspects involved.

Authorities are urging anyone with information about the suspects or any details pertaining to the incident to contact the Mesa County Sheriff’s Office at (970) 242-6707 or submit a tip to Mesa County Crime Stoppers. The public’s cooperation is crucial in resolving this case and preventing further criminal activities in the area.
