MAKE MY DAY Under CRS 18-1-704.5, Colorado’s Make My Day law permits you to injure or kill a home intruder if the following three things are true: 1. The intruder illegally enters the home, and it does not matter whether the intruder breaks in or enters through an unlocked door or open window; 2. You have reasonable grounds to believe that the intruder committed - or intends to commit - a crime in the home (other than the intrusion); and 3. You have reasonable grounds to believe the intruder may use any degree of physical force against you or another occupant in the home. Therefore, Colorado law imposes no duty to retreat on people in a home when a seemingly dangerous intruder enters. This is true even when the people inside the home can easily escape through a door or window. Instead, the people inside the home may “stand their ground” to fight and even kill the intruder. Note that the Make My Day law applies to any dwelling, including RV trailers and hotel rooms. But it does not include the common area of an apartment building; the intruder would have to unlawfully enter an actual apartment for an occupant to be protected under the Make My Day law.
