GRAND COUNTY, Colo. — The Grand County Sheriff’s Office is looking for a man after homeowners interrupted a break-in at a residence in the Winter Park Highlands neighborhood Friday afternoon.

After a brief altercation, the suspect fled in the vehicle, according to deputies.

Investigators determined that the man had entered through a back window.

The adult white male was described as being approximately 40 – 50 years old with grey hair and a partial beard.
