Brighton, Colorado (AP) 

Sheriff's officers said two persons were arrested Thursday as suspects in the fatal shooting of an 18 year old girl at an Adams County truck stop earlier in the day.

Captain Jim Glassman said Cindy Sue Mumford died several hours after she was shot in the head by one of two men who were fighting with her boyfriend in the restaurant parking lot.

Glassman said Bobby Joe Webb, 32, address unknown and an unidentifed sixteen year old juvenile were arrested a short distance away, when police spotted a car that had reportedly been driven by the suspects.

Brighton, Colorado (AP)

District Judge Abraham Bowling sentenced an Adams County man convicted of manslaghter to up to nine years in the Colorado State Reformatory, Friday

Bobb Joe Webb, 32,  was convicted March 15th in the fatal shooting of Cindy Sue Mumford, 18,  Brighton . She died last Decmber 21st.

Webb was freed on $10,000 bond pending an appeal

The PEOPLE of the State of Colorado, Plaintiff-Appellee,
 v.
Bobby Joe WEBB, Defendant-Appellant.
No. 26049.
October 6, 1975
(The following is from the appeal of Webb's manslaughter conviction)

During the early morning hours of December 21, 1972, defendant Webb was driving behind a car driven by Donald Dunkle in which eighteen-year old victim Cindy Mumford was a passenger. Dunkle testified that Webb followed him too closely and then attempted to pass him. Dunkle said he accelerated and drove into a truck-stop parking lot. A series of angry verbal exchanges between the pair culminated in Webb's shooting at Dunkle's car and fatally wounding Miss Mumford. Marvin Koger, an eyewitness to the incident, testified that he saw Webb raise a gun and shoot at the Dunkle car from a distance of about twenty feet. It appeared to him that Webb fired the weapon without aiming. A second eyewitness, Mark Coy, testified that the Dunkle car was moving toward an exit gate at the time Webb shot the gun. He said the parking lot was well lighted at the time. Webb testified that prior to the shooting he was driving behind Dunkle's car and attempted to pass it. At this point, Dunkle accelerated and swerved, forcing Webb off to the gravel portion of the left side of the road. Webb regained control of his jeep, drove ahead and stopped at the truck-stop parking lot after observing Dunkle's car there. Webb asked Dunkle why he tried to run him off the road, and the latter responded with the use of obscene language. Dunkle waived his arm out of the window of his car and shouted at him. Webb thought Dunkle had a firearm; he therefore grabbed his own gun from inside his jeep and fired with the intention of frightening Dunkle. He said that he had no intention of hurting anyone. The evidence is undisputed that Webb did not know either Dunkle or the victim prior to this incident. The jury was instructed on first-degree murder, manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide.

Note: The result of the appeal was that Webb's manslaughter conviction was overturned, and the district judge was directed to resentence Webb for the crime of Criminally Negligent Homicide, a lesser charge. I don't know what happened after that. Presumidly Webb was resentenced and served that time, subject to possible parole.
