The statewide grand jury indicted 11 defendants on 52 counts for carrying out a widespread motor vehicle theft ring that targeted vehicles parked at small municipal airports along the Front Range between July 2024 and January 2025, Attorney General Phil Weiser and Denver District Attorney John Walsh announced today.

“I am grateful to DA Walsh and other law enforcement partners that helped takedown this latest motor vehicle theft crime ring that harmed many victims and communities along the Front Range. While we have made great progress in reducing vehicle theft around the state, we have more work to do. We’ll work to ensure that we deliver justice for the victims of this alleged organized crime spree." – AG Weiser
