The suspect involved in a police shooting with a Fremont County sheriff’s deputy in late August has been arrested and identified after being released from the hospital.

Ethan Pollington, 27, was hospitalized on Aug. 29 after a deputy went to a Cañon City home for a welfare check around 6 p.m. following a series of “repeated 911 hang-up calls” made by a relative inside the home, according to a Thursday news release by the Colorado Bureau of Investigation. The relative informed the deputy that Pollington was drunk and had a gun.

While speaking to the relative, Pollington purportedly opened the door and pointed a .22-caliber gun at the deputy then walked outside. The deputy fired his weapon, striking Pollington in the arm and leg. The suspect’s handgun was later found to be unloaded.

Located in the 1400 block of Chestnut Street, investigators found five explosives in the residence. The Pueblo Metro Bomb Squad determined that the four plastic items and one metal item were inert.

Pollington is charged with first-degree assault, felony menacing of a peace officer, reckless endangerment of an at-risk adult, reckless endangerment and prohibited use of a weapon.

Jail records show he is being held in the Fremont County Detention Center. He is set to appear in court at 1:15 p.m. Thursday at the Fremont County Courthouse for an advisement hearing.
