The Larimer County Sheriff’s Office has completed its investigation into a March 29, 2025, incident at Dwayne Webster Park in Loveland. The dispute, which involved multiple individuals, prompted a citizen to report the matter to nearby Loveland Police officers. After learning a Loveland City Council member was involved, Loveland Police turned the investigation over to the Sheriff’s Office to avoid any conflict of interest.

According to the Sheriff’s Office, the following individuals were issued summonses for harassment:

  • Lynn St. John (DOB 11/19/1953) – Harassment, class 1 misdemeanor
  • Alan Kujawa (DOB 09/18/1972) – Harassment, class 2 misdemeanor
  • Campbell Kujawa Black (DOB 09/09/2004) – Harassment, class 2 misdemeanor
  • Dillon Kaiser (DOB 01/21/1983) – Harassment, class 2 misdemeanor

St. John, a Loveland City Council member, is the only elected official among those charged.

While public speculation and community social media posts have mentioned the involvement of another council member, Erin Black, the Eighth Judicial District Attorney has officially declined to press charges against her. The Sheriff’s Office did not release specific details about the nature of the altercation, but community sources allege a verbal confrontation between Black and resident Dillon Kaiser sparked the conflict. Still, only the individuals listed above have been charged.

As this case progresses, it has raised questions in the community about the conduct of public officials and the appropriate resolution of conflicts. The District Attorney’s Office will now handle the prosecution of the charges. All defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
