Boulder Public Safety

Independent documentation of public safety incidents in Boulder, Colorado.

The Boulder Public Safety Project is an independent public-interest archive documenting crime, fires, and other safety-related incidents in Boulder, Colorado.

This site compiles information from publicly available sources including police reports, radio traffic (when publicly accessible), and other official records. Its purpose is to preserve a structured, searchable record of incidents and patterns over time.

Rather than providing real-time reporting, this project focuses on documentation and context. Incidents described here reflect information as initially reported or documented and may be incomplete or subject to later clarification.

In October 2025, routine police radio communications in Boulder became encrypted, ending real-time public access to dispatch traffic that had historically provided insight into day-to-day public safety activity. This archive preserves documentation from earlier periods while continuing to collect information from publicly available sources where feasible.
