CASTLE ROCK, Colo. -- A jury found a young man involved in a suburban teen crime-spree guilty on two counts each of attempted murder and first-degree assault on a peace officer.Taylor Lynn Moudy, 20, of Castle Rock, was also found guilty Wednesday of 10 counts of burglary and related thefts for his role in the month-long Douglas County crime wave with a buddy in summer 2008. It ended June 28, 2008 with the then-19-year-olds in a high-speed chase in a stolen Honda as the teens allegedly fired from the rear window at two deputies in a patrol car, authorities said. One deputy was hit in the arm.
In a separate trial earlier this month, Moudy was found guilty of aggravated robbery and second-degree kidnapping for his role in the armed robbery of a Castle Rock convenience store.Police said the suspects were caught on surveillance video during the robbery at the Circle K Convenience Store June 11, 2008. The video showed two men clad in all black military-style wear, brandishing a semiautomatic assault rifle.The teens were accused of stealing rifles from a gun shop, burglarizing cars and homes and stealing several cars, including three Hummers, a Lexus and a Mustang.The suspects escaped after the deputy was shot, despite a massive manhunt involving dozens of deputies, SWAT teams and a police helicopter.But investigators, following tips and talking with people who knew the teens, eventually arrested Moudy five months later at the University of Colorado in Boulder campus where he was a student.Moudy confessed to police and implicated his friend, Brandin Eugene Kreuzer, of Sedalia, the son of a veteran Denver police officer, according to an arrest affidavitMoudy's sentencing is set for May 24. Kreuzer awaits trial later this year.
