Federal Agents Arrest Four Fugitives Hiding in Northglenn

Gabriel Olivo-Olivo was hiding in Northglenn. He is 28 years old, and he killed a man on Sept. 11 in Lewisville, Texas. He did not stay put.

He ran. So did three others. They crossed state lines, likely thinking the distance would buy them time. It didn’t. On Sept. 21, federal agents kicked down a door in the 3400 block of 105th Court. They found him there, along with Erian Espinoza-Martinez, Carly Guerrero-Aguero, and a juvenile whose name authorities are withholding.

The short version: four people wanted for a targeted shooting in Texas were arrested in Colorado without further incident.

The victim died at an apartment complex in the 200 block of East Corporate Drive in Lewisville. The Lewisville Police Department issued a first-degree murder warrant for Olivo-Olivo on Sept. 15, just four days after the shooting. Detectives determined early that this wasn’t a random act of violence. It was a hit involving multiple individuals.

Homeland Security Investigations and the U.S. Marshals Service tracked the group to the Denver metro area. They passed the coordinates to local task force officers in Colorado. The U.S. Marshals Service Colorado Violent Offender Task Force set up surveillance at the Northglenn home on Sept. 21. They positively identified Olivo-Olivo inside with the others of interest.

Because this was a homicide case, they didn’t send in plainclothes officers with polite requests. They called the Colorado State Patrol’s Special Operations and Response team for tactical assistance. The joint operation resulted in all four arrests.

After they took the suspects into custody, agents executed a search warrant at the Northglenn residence. They recovered a semi-automatic handgun and other evidentiary items linked to the Texas murder. The adults are currently held at the Adams County Jail, awaiting extradition back to Texas.

U.S. Marshal Kirk Taylor called it a demonstration of what happens when agencies work together. He said, “When state, local and federal partners work hand-in-hand, there becomes nowhere to run for those attempting to flee from justice.”

Lewisville Police Chief Brook Rollins praised the persistence of his detectives. He noted they worked day after day, following evidence across jurisdictions and state lines. “These arrests are an important step,” Rollins said, “but the investigation is not over.”

Read that again. The investigation is not over.

The suspects are in jail, but they aren’t in Texas yet. Extradition takes time. Paperwork moves at the speed of bureaucracy, not bullets. Until they are physically back in Lewisville, they are still out there, technically, on Colorado soil.

The fact that a targeted shooting in the Dallas-Fort Worth area led to a tactical raid on a home in Adams County says something about how crime moves now. It doesn’t respect state lines. It respects geography and opportunity. These four suspects chose Northglenn as their sanctuary. They got a week of it.

The recovered handgun is now evidence in a Texas case, sitting in a Colorado evidence locker. The victim’s family is still waiting for answers that only a trial can provide. For now, the story sits in the gap between two states, waiting for the next legal step to be taken.
