Update: Read our interview with Cold Crush Owner Brian Mathenge.
Since it opened in May 2013 (earning our Best New Bar award for that year), Cold Crush has been a hotbed of activity, with live music inside and a lot of live art outside, including the recent Colorado Crush 2016.

A gofundme page has been set up for Adair’s family, which includes a young daughter.
Another man was critically injured in the shooting.
There was another high-profile shooting outside the bar in 2014, in which three people were injured.

Now the city has closed Cold Crush as a public nuisance, posting this notice earlier today:
