Craig Robert Sikorsky, 51, the owner of Jersey Boys Pizza and Deli in Dillon, was arrested on July 15 after an investigation revealed he had sexually assaulted a Summit County child.<\/p>\n

On June 26, 2019, deputies with the Summit County Sheriff\u2019s Office were dispatched on a report of a sex assault that took place earlier that day, according to a police report of the incident. The reporting party said another man, later identified as Sikorsky, molested his child, and both the child and father agreed to go to St. Anthony Summit Medical Center for a sex assault nurse exam.<\/p>\n

According to the report, Sikorsky and the child had previous encounters that may have been mildly sexual. An interview with the child revealed that Sikorsky flagrantly molested the child during their most recent encounter, including continuing with sexual acts after the child told him to stop.<\/p>\n

Sikorsky was arrested lon July 15 on felony charges of sex assault on a child and enticement of a child, along with a misdemeanor charge of unlawful sexual contact. On Jan. 13, Sikorsky pleaded guilty to sexual exploitation of a child, a class-four felony, and the other charges in the case were dropped. Sikorsky is scheduled to appear in district court for a sentencing hearing on April 6.<\/p>\n

5. CPW kills mountain lion responsible for killing goats in Dillon<\/a><\/h4>\n

On the morning of Jan. 26, wildlife officers with Colorado Parks and Wildlife responded to a residence off of Ptarmigan Trail Road near Interstate 70 in Dillon. Sometime the night before, a mountain lion killed three domesticated goats in one of the resident\u2019s yards.<\/p>\n

According to CPW Spokesman Mike Porras, officers identified the lion as the same animal that had been seen in the area a number of times before, and made the decision that because of it\u2019s apparent habituation to the area, it had become danger to human health and safety.<\/p>\n

Porras said that once a lion becomes habituated to a residential area they\u2019re almost impossible to relocate. On Monday, officers with CPW tracked down the lion with the help of dogs, and killed it. Porras noted that the animal\u2019s meat would be donated to local people in need.<\/p>\n
