DA: Arapahoe County Sheriff Acted ‘Irresponsibly,’ But No Charges
Arapahoe County Sheriff Tyler Brown won't face charges after a bar incident, the DA said.
(CBS4) – Arapahoe County Sheriff Tyler Brown will not face criminal charges in relation to an incident last month at a restaurant, the Denver District Attorney’s Office announced on Thursday. The announcement came with a statement of opinion from DA Beth McCann that the “behavior of Sheriff Brown in this situation was irresponsible and unprofessional for an elected sheriff.”
The incident in question happened on Aug. 21 at the new restaurant and game hall called Pindustry, located in Greenwood Village. Brown released a statement a week ago saying “I have not been made aware of the details of the allegations against me” and so far authorities haven’t disclosed exactly what occurred. McCann said the people involved in the incident were all drinking and “the parties involved who could be considered victims of the sheriff’s conduct do not wish to proceed with criminal charges.” No one was injured seriously.
