Colorado Prosecutors Charge Uber Driver Accused of Attempted Break-In

Prosecutors have charged a Colorado Uber driver accused of trying to break into the home of a woman he drove to the airport.

The Denver District Attorney’s Office announced in April that 51-year-old Gerald Montgomery was charged with attempted second-degree burglary, possession of burglary tools and attempted first-degree criminal trespass.

Police say Montgomery dropped off the passenger at the airport March 26, returned to her home and then tried to break in. An arrest affidavit says he ran when the woman’s roommate spotted him.

The roommates say they realized the attempted burglar was the Uber driver after the woman sent her roommate a picture of him.
