Law enforcement in Colorado is looking into several instances of rocks and other items being thrown at vehicles, including one resulting in the death of a 20-year-old woman who was driving her car when struck. Alexa Bartell was reportedly killed after unidentified individuals threw a large rock at her car, causing it to smash through her windshield and into her. Bartell was on the phone with a friend when the rock struck her, and her friend was then able to track her phone and locate her crashed vehicle with Bartell still clinging to life inside, according to CBS News , which cites the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office.
Bartell ultimately passed away. The outlet reports that there were several other similar cases of people throwing rocks at vehicles in that same area. Bartell’s is the only death that has been reported at this time, according to reports.
“According to authorities, there were multiple other incidents late Wednesday night into early Thursday morning in which rocks were thrown at vehicles. No other incidents were fatal,” the outlet reported. The article added: “At 10:04 p.
m. in Westminster, a rock was thrown through a windshield. The driver was not injured,” CBS News writes.
“Two more incidents occurred about half an hour later, both in Boulder County near the Rock Creek neighborhood. At 10:36 p. m.
, another rock was thrown through a windshield, resulting in minor injuries to the car’s driver. A minute later, at 10:37 p. m.
, a rock was thrown at the body of a Toyota, resulting in body damage to the vehicle but no injuries to the driver. ” The incident that caused Bartell’s death took place eight minutes after the rock was thrown at the Toyota, according to the report. “The last incident took place over an hour and a half later, in Arvada, where a rock was again thrown through a windshield, resulting in minor injuries to the driver,” it says.
Local authorities are looking for a light-colored pickup or SUV, and say they believe there are more victims. The far-right Trump-appointed federal judge in Texas who authored the opinion revoking the US Food and Drug Administration’s approval of the abortion drug mifepristone failed to disclose interviews he gave on Christian talk radio when he was being confirmed by the Senate, reported CNN on Thursday. “In undisclosed radio interviews, Matthew Kacsmaryk referred to being gay as ‘a lifestyle’ and expressed concerns that new norms for ‘people who experience same-sex attraction’ would lead to clashes with religious institutions, calling it the latest in a change in sexual norms that began with ‘no-fault divorce’ and ‘permissive policies on contraception,'” reported Andrew Kaczynski and Em Steck.
“Kacsmaryk . . .
made the unreported comments in two appearances in 2014 on Chosen Generation, a radio show that offers ‘a biblical constitutional worldview. ‘ At the time, Kacsmaryk was deputy general counsel at First Liberty Institute, a nonprofit religious liberty advocacy group known before 2016 as the Liberty Institute, and was brought on to the radio show to discuss ‘the homosexual agenda’ to silence churches and religious liberty, according to the show’s host. ” “In a statement sent to CNN, Kacsmaryk said he did not locate the interview when searching for media to disclose and he did not recall the interview,” said the report.
“I used the DOJ-OLP manual to run searches for all media but did not locate this interview and did not recall this event, which involved a call-in to a local radio show,” he told CNN. “After listening to the audio file supplied by CNN, I agree that the content is equivalent to the legal analysis appearing throughout my SJQ and discussed extensively during my Senate confirmation hearing. Additionally, the transcript supplied by CNN appears to track with the audio and accurately recounts my responses during the phone call — when quoted in full.
‘” This comes after earlier reporting that Kacsmaryk also failed to disclose his involvement with an article submitted to a Texas law review, which said people “cannot use their scalpels to make female what God created male” and “cannot use their pens to prescribe or dispense abortifacient drugs designed to kill unborn children” — and that his name was actually removed from the paper right around when he was up for confirmation. Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), who voted to confirm Kacsmaryk, has expressed outrage over the concealed records, and suggested she was misled in order to secure her vote.
Kacsmaryk’s order against mifepristone has been partially blocked by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the Supreme Court is currently weighing whether to block the entire ruling.

The reporter was investigating claims that the official lives outside of her district.
Arizona state Senator Wendy Rogers (R) complained to the court that Camryn Sanchez, an Arizona Capitol Times Reporter who is apparently investigating Rogers and whether she lives outside of her northern Arizona district, contacted her at her home. Rogers posted about the incident and restraining order on Twitter , and included a photo of the forms that didn’t obscure the home address of Sanchez. Rogers, who in August 2022 praised Alex Jones and said he shouldn’t have been held accountable for spreading dangerous false claims, accused Sanchez of being “creepy,” and said she “has been stalking” her and her neighbors at her “private residences with no explanation.
” “A judge just issued a restraining order against her for her bizarre behavior,” Rogers said, including several doorbell-cam photos of the reporter. The series of photos also includes an image of the official form, which includes personal identifying information belonging to Sanchez. In its own report , the Arizona Capitol Times said Rogers “filed a petition for an injunction against harassment” and that the court ordered Sanchez to avoid contacting Rogers at her home.
The outlet also noted that Sanchez was “investigating whether Rogers lives in Flagstaff or other homes she has owned outside of her district in Maricopa County. ” “The investigation included an examination of publicly available property records that show Rogers and her husband bought a home in Chandler in January and signed a trust document that said she resides in Tempe. ” the report says.
“Neither city is located in Rogers’ Legislative District 7, which includes Payson, Williams, Flagstaff and Show Low but not Maricopa County. ” The Arizona Capitol Times further reported that residency lawsuits have historically been difficult to prove in the state, because the statute includes a loophole for officials who one day plan to return to their district.
