The El Paso County Sheriff’s Office is looking into two recent smash-and-grab robberies and is seeking the public’s assistance in the investigation.

On Thursday at around 1:30 a.m., the Communications Center reported receiving multiple 911 calls regarding an active burglary in the 2000 block of B Street.

According to witnesses in the area, the suspects used a vehicle to ram through the storefront to gain access. It is unclear at this time if the vehicle used was stolen.

As deputies were responding the the scene, the sheriff’s office received more 911 calls, saying suspects were attempting to break into another nearby business.

Callers reported seeing two vehicles involved in both crimes: a white Kia sedan and a gray Kia hatchback, according to a press release Friday afternoon. While responding to one scene, deputies observed a white Kia speeding away from the area. Law enforcement attempted to locate this vehicle but were unsuccessful.

This remains an active investigation. Anyone with information related to these incidents is urged to contact the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office Tip Line at 719-520-7777.
