Marshalls Service said fans were traveling in a car rental near COVOTF near C-470 at Highland Ranch and South Klebex Street at Highland Ranch before returning to Colorado Springs. COVOTF Deputy U.S. Former S. and Task Force officers, Colorado Bureau of Investigation and Colorado Department of Corrections deputies have contacted both the Colorado Springs Police Department and the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office.
Marshalls Services said Phang left when CSPD officers approached to arrest him, following the car park at the Big R Store at Fontaine Boulevard in Security Widefield. The fan got out of the car and tried to escape, but was soon caught.
The fan was taken to the El Paso County Criminal Justice Center, where he was booked with an unpaid murder warrant from Florida. He is currently waiting for his extradition to Florida.
