Man Arrested After 3 Hour Accident Spree

Crime Spree Begins With Car Theft in Centennial 




A 35-year-old man has been detained in a bizarre string of car crashes and thefts spread out across the Centennial, Denver, Aurora, and Boulder areas.

Boulder police arrested Adam Benjamin Manlove at approximately 9:30 a.m. Monday morning in the parking lot of the Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, after guards on the property reported a suspicious vehicle.

The spree apparently began in Centennial at around 6:45 a.m. when Manlove reportedly stole a Mazda from a Conoco station on East Smoky Hill Road and South Picadilly Street. 

The suspect was then allegedly involved in at least 9 other auto crashes and 4 carjackings. He also broke in to house and confronted at least one resident, John Nieves, who said the suspect "apologized and walked out. It was crazy." 

Another witness and victim, Jordan Colabello, had his car stolen by Manlove and offered "He had blood on his face, he just looked really desperate, like he wanted to get out of here fast." Other witnesses reported that the mean appeared to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

When Manlove was finally detained in Boulder, he told police he was involved in several car crashed. Police were able to link him to the earlier car thefts.

Police said they have reason to believe one person was involved with all of the accidents.
