I’m 2 miles from the scene and know several of the Deputies.

Domestic call, shots fired, 3 patients admitted, non-critical injuries.

Live Report 9news just now.

Nope, this feels like the ex-?army ranger latino guy who catastrophized Memorial Dr. in Houston on Memorial Day two years ago. Probably a marksman.

Reports on Twitter have it being a domestic.

I guess that's an easy stall - any home action is "domestic" ....and so are a lot of illegal maids and other "servants"......

Prayers for the officers and their families.

I’m concerned about an ambush. If you want to draw a lot of LEOs to a scene, call in a domestic.

New Years Weekend. Probably more likely a combo of long-simmering family squabble and cheap booze.

“Or maybe just a regular angry guy dishing out a little payback for all the unarmed, innocent Americans that cops have been murdering lately.”

Wow. You are truly an independent thinker.

That was a droll joke about all the silly ideas guessing what’s going on.

I use Broadcastify. Go to CO and select Douglas, Arapahoe traffic. FWIW, I think at least one feed has been looped, because I’d heard the audio before...

I suppose - but how many LEOs generally respond to a actual “domestic” call? From cop shows and other “experiences, usually an initial cruiser with 2 cops and one or two backups if it looks like it is/might be getting out of hand.

Doesn’t take a domestic call these days. Seems like every cop on duty shows up for a shoplifting call.

A lot of cops respond. Domestics are one of the most dangerous calls of all.

Domestic disturbance call at 6AM involving gunfire reported, that’s why there were a lot of deputies.

Shooter at large as of a few minutes ago.

In my neck of the woods, if there’s manpower available, domestics draw multiple LEOs. And a lot of calls that didn’t use to, do now. That’s one of the few uses of taxpayer money I wholeheartedly support.
