Aspen police want to speak to a man who may be connected to an incident over the weekend in which natural gas equipment was tampered with, leaving 3,500 households in the city without heat or hot water for days. 

Authorities in the ski town are asking the public to help identify a “person of interest,” described as a white man in his mid-40s to early 50s, who weighs approximately 160 pounds and stands 5’7”. 

He has gray hair, blue eyes and is clean shaven.  The man was wearing what was described as “high end” clothing and was carrying a computer bag on his back. 

Anyone with information on this individual is asked to call the Aspen Police Department.
