Black Hawk Marshal George Armbright, as of Wednesday, remained in serious but stable condition at Lutheran Medical Center in Wheat Ridge. Armbright was involved in a head on collision with a tractor trailer on October 18 while in his patrol car. Presently, since the city has no marshal, violations to the city ordinances are being handled by the Black Hawk City Council, primarily Councilman David Spellman, who is the city police commissioner, Mona Dawkins, city clerk/ treasurer said Tuesday. All criminal offenses in the city are being handled by the Gilpin Count Sheriff’s Department at this time. The length of time that Armbright will be absent from his position as marshal is unknown, Dawkins said.
Random Notes: The first time Lary Brown, who owns the Victorian Nugget gift shop in Central City, was mistaken for the Larry Brown who is a consultant for Siegrist, he didn’t think much about it. Then, our Lary Brown got a few irate telephone calls about Siegrist’s quarry and decided he should set the record straight. Not only is he not a quarry consultant, he doesn’t even spell his name the same way.
