Sheriff's office asks for tips after man found dead on trail

Jamie Singleton, 40, was found in the area of South Quebec Street and East Iliff Avenue in July.

ARAPAHOE COUNTY, Colo. — The Arapahoe County Sheriff's Office is asking for tips after a man was found dead in July along the Highline Canal Trail.

Someone called the Sheriff's Office about a man on the trail about 5:30 a.m. on July 11. When deputies with the Arapahoe County Sheriff's Office (ACSO) arrived, they found a man's body about 50 yards from South Quebec Street on the trail.

On Tuesday, the sheriff's office released a bulletin through Metro Denver Crime Stoppers asking for the public's help to solve the case. It said that Singleton, whose nickname was "Ears", was taken too soon and that his family deserves answers.

According to the coroner's office, Singleton died from multiple gunshot wounds.
