Adding on from a conversation with the Monument PD officer who referenced a bulletin the agency received as well as conversation with El Paso County deputies;
Callahan and El Paso County Sheriff's both doing shift change at 1600, going from a whopping 4 law enforcement officers in Northeast El Paso County to 0 for about a half an hour. Based on my observation Elbert County to shift change around then also.
