By Zack Newman, The Colorado Sun | When Bret Dallas went to the shed outside of his Lakewood home to follow his routine and lift weights one October morning, the 46-year-old could not believe what he saw. Or didn’t see.
“I felt like I got hit in the gut,” Dallas said. “Because I just opened my shed and there was just empty space where everything used to be.”
Dallas has spent at least 10 years performing on the streets of Denver. In that shed were all of his tools of the busking trade including thousands of dollars worth of electric guitars, speakers and pedals. The incident reports from the Lakewood Police Department also listed stolen bikes and tools.
