Aurora's SWAT team arrested Garry Martin, 42, on Tuesday as a suspect involved with a home invasion robbery in Jefferson County.
The victim of the robbery in south Jefferson County was followed, hog-tied and robbed at gunpoint inside his home June 30.
Jeffco investigators arrested Martin after following up on information about the robbery reported via the tip line.
Martin is being held at the Jefferson County Jail on a $250,000 cash-only bond. Authorities believe at least one other suspect is still at large and may be driving the black 2008 Cadillac CTS-V with Fleet license plate #351RBL.
This isn't Martin's first arrest. Two weeks before the home invasion robbery, Martin was arrested June 18 after his alleged involvement in a series of crimes starting with a locker burglary at a fitness center and ending in a foot-chase from a stolen car.
Jeffco investigators are asking for help in identifying the remaining robbery suspects. Anyone with information can call the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office tip line at 303-271-5612.
