The deputies identified the suspect as Michael Joseph Lucky, 32, and began to search for him, according to the sheriff’s office.

An Everbridge notification was sent to the residents in the area asking them to shelter in place out of an abundance of caution.

As search efforts continued, Lucky turned himself into Boulder County Sheriff’s Office headquarters on Wednesday morning. He was then taken into custody, according to the sheriff’s office.

At the time of his arrest, he was out on bond for a case involving the victim’s daughter.

Lucky faces charges of attempted murder, first-degree burglary, stalking, violation of a protection order, domestic violence and two counts of crime of violence.

Deputies said they believe the suspect targeted the victim, based on Lucky’s previous criminal history.
