GLEN HAVEN, Colo. (KDVR) — A Colorado father killed in front of his family as he drove on Interstate 70 over Father’s Day weekend has been identified as a local assistant fire chief.
John Jaros, 37, was shot and killed Saturday in Aurora. His wife and three children were in the car at the time investigators believe street racers fired those shots.
The man was from Glen Haven, a small town near Estes Park. With a population of just more than 100 people, to call a town the size of Glen Haven “tight-knit” is an understatement. This loss rocked the entire town and the volunteer firefighter family as well.
