This is a the second recent incident on South Chelton Loop in the early hours of the morning. A couple were robbed at gunpoint and suffered significant injuries on January 17 at 2:00 AM. There’s nothing good going on at that time in Colorado Springs, especially around Chelton Loop, which is a commercial area with nowhere open at that time of night. I’m betting it was another drug deal gone wrong.
