PAONIA SHOOTING: Henry Russell, who was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of attempted murder and other offenses, allegedly encountered his 33-year-old nemesis as the other man walked home from the library via Samuel Ward Road on Monday. The alleged victim told Delta County Sheriff's Office Detective Matthew Brewer that as he crossed the bridge, Russell passed by him. He gave Russell a dirty look, but didn't think anything of it when Russell turned around. Russell pulled up beside him, said his name, and shot him, the man alleged. He sustained a gunshot wound to the neck. YOUTH CRASHES INTO CANAL: A few feet over, and the car would have struck a large cottonwood. If not for nearby eyewitnesses, the vehicle might have remained unobserved for a time in the canal just off the sharp curve on Lincoln Road. Instead, the teenager driver was "lucky," Colorado State Patrol Trooper David Copeland said — the black SUV wound up lodged halfway in, halfway out of the narrow irrigation waterway.

Some join for exercise, to develop and learn coordination, to participate in tournaments and sparring or because of their family.
