Investigation Launched into Colorado Restaurant Dispute Involving Lauren Boebert

An investigation is underway regarding a possible altercation between Republican congresswoman Lauren Boebert and her ex-husband at a restaurant in Colorado. Silt Police Chief Mike Kite confirmed that an active investigation is ongoing, but no additional details were provided. The exact events of the altercation remain unclear, but Boebert denied punching her ex-husband and stated that no one was arrested. Boebert and Jayson Boebert divorced earlier this year, and she announced that she is consulting a lawyer over false accusations against her. Jayson Boebert expressed that he does not intend to press charges regarding the incident, stating that they were trying to work through a difficult conversation. This incident follows a previous incident in which Boebert was escorted out of a theater in Denver for disruptive behavior during a musical performance. She attributed her actions in that incident to the challenges of her divorce. Boebert has also announced her intention to run in a different Colorado district in the 2024 elections and cited the alleged restaurant incident as another reason for her decision to relocate.
