The investigation into the July 2 homicide of Chrystal Snow, 39, of Pagosa Springs, continues, with the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) announcing that persons of interest have been identified.

Snow’s body was discovered early the morning of July 2 after Archuleta County Combined Dispatch received a 911 call from her home at approximately 2:20 a.m., according to press releases from the Archuleta County Sheriff’s Office (ACSO) and CBI. 

According to the ACSO press release, the ACSO was dispatched to a 911 open line in the 1000 block of County Road 700 at approximately 2:20 a.m. on Tuesday, July 2.

“Upon arrival on-scene, two Archuleta County Sheriff’s Deputies discovered a deceased female, age 39. The victim was shot during an apparent homicide,” it states.

The press released further notes the scene was immediately secured and the ACSO requested support from the CBI, with CBI agreeing to be the lead investigative agency.

The victim was later identified as Snow.

According to a July 3 press release from CBI, Snow died from multiple gunshot wounds.

“At this time investigators believe Snow called 911 shortly before she died from her injuries,” the CBI press release states.

It further notes, “CBI agents believe this was a targeted shooting and have identified Persons of Interest, but no arrests have been made while the investigation continues. Investigators do not believe there is any active threat to the public.”

CBI has not named the persons of interest.
