MAN WITH CUT TRIGGERS INVESTIGATION
Aspen police were looking into a mysterious injury reported Saturday night by a man in Mountain Valley, according to a sergeant.
The 41-year-old man had a laceration on his back, though he refused to tell officers how it happened, said Sgt. Terry Leitch of the Aspen Police Department. The man called for medical assistance a little after 9 p.m., he said.
Leitch said the man made no claims that he was the victim of a crime, though Aspen police were continuing to look into the incident Sunday afternoon. Leitch declined to release any other information.
