  • Public Affairs Specialist Deborah Sherman (303) 630-6060

In a joint investigation, the Lakewood Police Department, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF), and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF), responded early Saturday morning to the Borders Book Store at the Colorado Mills Mall in Lakewood, Colorado.

After receiving a store alarm, police officers responded and found what appeared to be forced entry into the business. Upon further investigation, two devices were located and the Jefferson County Bomb Squad responded to the scene.

The scene was secured and the Colorado Mills Mall is open for business. No injuries were reported and no threats have been communicated to Borders or the Mall.

The investigation continues and is in the initial stages. Media updates will be provided when more details become available. No press conference is scheduled at this time.
