At approximately 5:33 PM this evening, Larimer County Sheriff’s Office dispatch received a 911 call from the trailer park located at 2025 North College in Fort Collins. The caller indicated that there was a fight involving several males with knives and a screw driver. Reportedly, 4 gang affiliated males who are still at large attacked another 26 year old male who is believed to be affiliated with another gang. The 26 year old victim was stabbed multiple times and his family members transported him to Poudre Valley Hospital. Due to the violent nature of the injuries, the hospital went on lock-down as a precaution. However, the general public is not considered to be in danger at this time. Larimer County Sheriff’s Office deputies immediately responded to both the hospital and trailer park. The Fort Collins Police Department also assisted. Investigators are actively pursuing multiple leads. Due to the ongoing nature of this investigation, no further information is available at this time.
