COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KOAA) — The Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPD) is notifying the community that a Sexually Violent Predator (SVP) has moved into the area.

Clifford Wayne Chance is on supervised release and has moved to 329 Swope Ave.

He's described as a 70-year-old white man, 6'0", 150lbs, with gray hair and blue eyes.

The past behavior that has led him to be labeled as an SVP is as follows;

  • Sexual Assault in the Second Degree (1982)
  • Sexual Assault on a Child by One in a Position of Trust- Victim Under 15 (1997)
  • Sexual Assault on a Child by One in a Position of Trust- Victim Under 15 (2014)

CSPD is making all reasonable efforts to ensure that Chance registers as a sex offender, and he understands his responsibilities.

Anyone with questions about Chance can contact CSPD Registered Sex Offender Unit Detective J.R. Brown at (719)444-7672.
