CSPD: Suspect arrested after stolen truck chase from Fountain
(COLORADO SPRINGS) — The driver of a stolen truck who ran away from officers in Fountain was found in Colorado Springs eight days after initially escaping police. On Tuesday, May 13, police located a stolen Ford F-250 in the City of Fountain. The driver of the vehicle and suspect, 36-year-old Michael Rempel, allegedly drove away from officers into the City of Colorado Springs, and CSPD was notified that Rempel could be in the city. The stolen truck was later found in Colorado Springs on Wednesday, May 21, near the Citadel Mall after the vehicle was involved in a hit-and-run, according to CSPD. While detectives were investigating the crash, they saw Rempel allegedly altering the appearance of the truck. As the investigation continued, detectives saw Rempel park in an alleyway in the 1300 block of North El Paso Street. Because of the aggressive behavior witnessed during surveillance, the Tactical Enforcement Unit (TEU) was called and performed a Contact Block. According to police, Rempel accelerated and attempted to ram his way out of the block, but the tactical vehicles maintained the block. Rempel then attempted to run away on foot, but tactical officers pursued and took him into custody. Rempel was taken to the hospital for treatment, then booked into the Criminal Justice Center for charges of Motor Vehicle Theft, Felony Eluding, Obstruction, Felony Criminal Mischief, and Possession of Methamphetamine. CSPD said Rempel has a history of motor vehicle theft and was out on bond for two separate motor vehicle theft cases. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Helen Johnston, TEU Branch President at Whitireia says 'I feel for our community – Whitireia is the lifeblood of the region and it's our young people, our students, who are ultimately hurt the most at times like this. I worry about those who may miss out on the future they deserve and I worry for the quality of their education that will be delivered by the depleted stadd who will remain. Leo Pirini, Te Uepu Representitive at Weltec says 'I'm shocked. This is a big blow and my heart goes out to my colleagues who are impacted by this – they are all great people and talented educators. Some of them have been very long serving and loyal to their students and their institution. It's heartbreaking.'

Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Tight End University 2025: Travis Kelce is back and ready to change the game for rising stars Known for being one of the most dynamic and reliable weapons in the , Kelce is consciously staying away from distractions this offseason. He chose to skip marquee events like the Kentucky Derby and the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix — even though he's a stakeholder in the Alpine F1 team. His focus, it seems, is rooted in something more profound than the headlines. Kelce's offseason also includes time spent with his girlfriend, pop megastar , but it's clear that his relationship hasn't overshadowed his commitment to the game. The Chiefs veteran, now nearing the end of his contract, dismissed any post-Super Bowl retirement rumors after Kansas City's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He has made it known that he plans to fulfill his obligations to the franchise that helped shape his legendary career. Travis Kelce hasn't just played the tight end position — he's revolutionized it. His impact has stretched beyond the stat sheets, redefining how the role fits into a team's offensive scheme. No longer is the tight end limited to blocking or short-yardage gains. Thanks to players like Kelce, the position now demands versatility, athleticism, and elite-level football IQ. Conversations around the greatest tight ends in NFL history are incomplete without his name at the center. With multiple Super Bowl victories and countless accolades, Kelce's legacy is already sealed. But he's not content with just riding out his final seasons. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Instead, he's paying it forward. Kelce will again join forces with George Kittle and Greg Olsen for the fifth annual Tight End University (TEU), set to take place June 23–26 at Vanderbilt University in Nashville. 'Over the course of the summit, attendees are able to bond, collaborate with, and learn amongst their peers while participating in a variety of activities including film study, on-field drills, recovery, rehabilitation, and more,' says the TEU mission statement. This initiative has rapidly evolved into a cornerstone for tight end development, offering young players a unique chance to glean insights from current stars and retired legends. 'Our goal with TEU has always been to create a space where tight ends can come together, share knowledge, and elevate each other,' co-founder Greg Olsen said. 'Being able to spread knowledge and pick the brains of those who do it at the highest level every Sunday... is truly something we take great pride in.' As Kelce edges closer to what might be his final chapter on the field, he's proving that true greatness isn't just measured by trophies — it's also about impact, mentorship, and legacy. Also Read:

No EU toast raised with single malta: CJEU verdict spells end for 'Golden Passport' scheme
