FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – February 12, 2025

Adams County, Colo. (February 12, 2025): At 1:33 a.m. on February 10, 2025, deputies responded to the Players Club at 6710 Federal Blvd. about a victim with a gunshot wound inside of a vehicle in the parking lot.

Deputies arrived and found an adult male, identified as Jonathan Gulesserian, in the driver’s seat of a silver Toyota Rav4. Jonathan appeared to have suffered a fatal gunshot wound. Emergency medical personnel arrived and pronounced Jonathan deceased on the scene.

After thoroughly investigating video evidence and numerous interviews, investigators identified the suspect as Bruno Hernandez (DOB 4/28/89). Security footage from the Players Club revealed Bruno in an altercation with the victim moments before the shooting. Investigators were able to link Bruno’s vehicle to the shooting and the vehicle was later located at a residence in Ft. Lupton.

An arrest warrant was obtained for Bruno for First Degree Murder.

With the assistance of the Weld County SWAT team, the Ft. Lupton Police Department, and the FBI Rocky Mountain Safe Streets task force, Bruno was taken into custody at his residence without incident.

We would like to thank the assisting agencies and the community for helping bring this investigation to a resolution.
