COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - The Colorado Springs Police Department shared video of a deadly officer-involved shooting that occurred on the afternoon of Feb. 15.
Colorado Springs police said they responded to the 3100 block of Illinois Avenue just before 5 p.m. for a call of a family disturbance. This is near Edison Elementary School, near Hancock and Fillmore.
Before they arrived, police said two people involved in that family disturbance left the home where the disturbance was reported, leaving someone inside with an armed suspect. Police said everyone involved was a member of the same family.
“Due to safety concerns for the family member still inside the home, officers began making safety planning and arrangements to contact the residence inside the home,” said CSPD spokesperson Ira Cronin.
