Melodrama Ends in Tragedy in Weld County Jail
A Weld County rancher tale ends with Charles Taylor, 36, dead by his own hand in the Greeley jail after a drive to extort cash from Fred Lingelbach at the Lingelbach sheep ranch northeast of Keota. Lingelbach and Mrs Lingelbach survived. Taylor barricaded a barn before surrendering after warning shots. The incident followed a Monday robbery attempt and a hostage drama that stretched into the evening. Taylor claimed injury and owed damages from Lingelbach, but authorities say he had no serious insanity indicators. He was taken to Greeley after surrendering.
