A third suspect in the July 29 shooting of a police officer in Glenwood Springs is in custody in a Garfield County jail.
The officer was not seriously injured because he was wearing a bulletproof vest.
Mauricio "Flaco" Villa Garcia- Pena was arrested Friday in Silt without incident, said a Garfield County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman.

He remains in custody on a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detainer.
Garcia-Pena pleaded guilty July 19 to a felony charge of motor vehicle theft under $15,000, according to court records.
Two suspects already were in custody. Anthony Villegas, 19, was arrested Aug. 4 on a warrant for a drug-related felony, sheriff's officials said. The following day, Sergio Estebon Ramirez, 20, was arrested on suspicion of attempted first-degree murder of a police officer.
Authorities said a police officer was checking a storage facility south of the Glenwood Springs Airport shortly before 11 p.m., when he confronted three men walking away from him.
After he made several requests for the men to stop, one of the men pointed a firearm at him and fired several shots. The officer did not sustain life-threatening injuries.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
