FED FACES CRIMINAL PROBE IN COLORADO FRACAS

The Colorado Bureau of Investigation said Thursday it will investigate a fracas involving a federal agent and a protester outside the Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Durango on Oct. 28 at the request of the city's police chief.

The state law enforcement agency said: "Video of the incident has been circulated which appears to show a federal agent use force on a woman during the demonstration. The CBI will investigate whether there were state criminal law violations during the incident."

The Colorado State Patrol, which was called to provide assistance, issued a statement earlier in the week distancing itself use of force at the demonstration.

CBI said it will provide the results of its investigation to the 6th Judicial District Attorney’s Office, which has jurisdiction in Durango.
