Yep, that is an official tweet from the San Miguel County Sheriff's Twitter feed. The account itself has a couple thousand followers, and most of its previous tweets each received a small handful of retweets.

But that one has over 19,000 and counting.

Unsurprisingly, many of the replies tapped into the same thing.
