Hart Van Denburg/CPR News
Buc-ee’s in Johnstown, at the intersection of Interstate 25 and Nugget Road, features a 74,000-square-foot building, fronted by 116 fuel pumps, is open around the clock.

The controversy over whether to build a Buc-ee’s on Monument Hill may be on pause, after the company dropped its annexation application. Then, Jefferson County concludes its investigation into the Evergreen High School shooting. Plus, Colorado election officials respond to the president’s call for Republicans to “take over” elections in some places. And the family of a man killed by a Douglas County Sheriff’s deputy has filed a wrongful death lawsuit. Finally, meet the Broncos’ Fan(s) of the Year, and the former firehouse they converted into a shrine to the team.
