Here is what I found, pretty sure this is it, we use to go to Lake City and my folks retired in Gunnison, Creede is in the area.
In the early morning of November 18, 1994, a series of burglaries took place in Creede.

As Coursey stood near the driver’s door, Vredenburg shot him in the chest, killing him instantly.
