Boulder Police and Boulder Fire-Rescue were honored to es**rt Relay For America as they passed through our beautiful community as part of their journey to run with an American flag across the country!
They started in San Francisco and will end in Washington, D.C., on July 4th! The run is a great way to bring people together, see awesome places and show support for our country.
We’re glad we could help them stay safe as they passed through and proud that our own Officer Mollenhauer jumped in to run a few miles in full uniform! Safe travels!

Boulder Police Officer Arrested
BOULDER, Colo. – This afternoon the Boulder Police Department learned that Erie Police was investigating a domestic violence incident involving one of our officers.
The Erie Police Department developed criminal charges against Boulder Police Officer Matthew Herkalo for misdemeanor charges of domestic violence harassment and official misconduct. The incidents are alleged to have occurred when he was off duty. Herkalo turned himself in to Erie Police this afternoon and was arrested.
The Boulder Police Department has placed Herkalo on paid administrative leave per department policy. He has been a Boulder Police officer since July 2024.
The City of Boulder is sharing information about these allegations with our community in the spirit of transparency and integrity. As in every criminal case, these charges are an accusation, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless or until proven guilty.
