Longmont Police say a group of people had been at a party in the 1900 block of Meadow Drive Monday evening. The host of the party denies that a party took place. Police think it may have been related to the "4-20" activities that occur on April 20.

A fistfight between the victim and two of the suspects escalated and moved toward 19th Street by one of the suspect's vehicles.

The victim, Logan Sisson, 19, was stabbed. He later died at the hospital.

After the incident, police started looking for a Geo Tracker. When they located the vehicle on Tuesday, one of the suspects, Robert Wittmer, 35, also known as Dragon Master, was driving.

Detectives completed a search at Wittmer's home and the home of Mariena Harris, 19 on Wednesday morning. They found evidence at both homes including small homemade explosives at Wittmer's. As a result, the bomb squad was called.

Harris and the third suspect, Lakesha Crutcher, 20, a transient, were both arrested for second-degree murder. Wittmer has been charged with accessory to second-degree murder.

Additional charges relating to the explosives are expected.

As part of the investigation, police say they arrested Rablo Rothwell Guerra, also known as Alex, for a burglary that occurred before the homicide in the 1200 block of Main Street. Police say Guerra was not involved or present during the homicide.

Police say their investigation continues.
