BENNETT, Colo. — Bennett School District 29J canceled all school activity Wednesday because of a shooting that happened Tuesday evening at Trupp Park.
The district said "due to the severity of the incident," school is canceled for Wednesday.
No one was injured in the shooting.
Deputies with the Adams County Sheriff's Office said around 5:15 p.m., they got a report of shots fired in the area of Trupp Park on Palmer Avenue. A person of interest was detained at 5:25 p.m., the sheriff's office said. Deputies were on scene to interview witnesses and search the area for evidence.
Deputies said later Tuesday evening that two people had been detained for questioning. They did find evidence that shots were fired, but were still working to determine who fired those shots.
