5 dead, 18 injured in shooting at Colorado gay nightclub, police say
KDVR Fox 31 ^

Posted on 11/20/2022 8:43:25 AM PST by Jeremiah2911

An attacker opened fire in a gay nightclub late Saturday, killing five people and wounding 18, officials said. The club said the suspect was subdued by patrons.

Authorities received a report of a shooting at Club Q at 11:57 p.m. and responded within minutes, said Lt. Pamela Castro of the Colorado Springs Police Department.

A 22-year-old gunman walked into the club and immediately began firing from a “long rifle,” police said. Two firearms were found at the scene.

The gunman was taken into custody around five minutes after police first received a call about the shooting at Club Q. Police said early Sunday morning the suspect was also being treated at the hospital.

“The hospitals are helping us to notify families of the injured… we do have officers at every hospital with all the victims,” said Lt. Pamela Castro.

Castro had few details beyond the number of dead and wounded. She confirmed the suspect was injured but didn’t know how and that the FBI was on the scene and assisting.

“ Police did not confirm whether it was the same person, saying they were investigating whether the suspect had been arrested before.”

One would think in the information age that kind of information is instantaneously available at their fingertips.

My sister is militant homosexual. She has anger issues. Between her and her wife/husband, anger festers until it boils and eventully spills over....

A large majority of homo’s are easily triggered; they have been taught to be angry, used as pawns by the democrats. They feel like they have rights derived from anger.

Say it ain’t so, Joe.

Police identified the gunman as Anderson Lee Aldrich, who was in custody and being treated for injuries. A man with the same name and age was arrested in 2021 after his mother reported he threatened her with “a homemade bomb, multiple weapons and ammunition,” according to authorities.

I can’t believe that the owner of this homosexual joint designated this as a “hate crime” against the alphabet “community” and the FIB Boyz hurried right on over on an early Sunday morning.

FWIW, rifles with shorter barrels are often called carbines.

“Nov 20, 2022 · Anderson Lee Aldrich, the suspect in the shooting at Club Q, was previously arrested in Colorado Springs for making a bomb threat in a neighborhood. ... was on the 6300 block of Pilgrimage Road (which is approximately 1 mile away from the address on Rubicon Drive).”

Same guy, and they didn’t release a photo then either.

Developed and nudged forward by the FBI. If Americans knew the truth of how various facets of this org operates, specifically in regard to grooming mentally unwell people, we would demand its closure.

Well, c’mon, the shooter had already been subdued by folks in the bar. No risk.
Now, had teachers in Uvalde been armed that shooter would have been dead in 5 minutes and the coppers hiding outside would not have had to stop their donut break to drag off his body.

Somehow I doubt it.

Odds generally are against it, and being in CO doesn’t make me confident many Moslems would be around, even for vacation.

He was subdued by multiple smacks with purses.

Don't underestimate them. There is no one more vicious than an angry "gay". My money is on the targets causing the gunman's injuries.

If it wasn’t a Wayne, you’d know it had to be a Lee.

I just read that suspect in custody named as Anderson Lee Aldrich. Not sure if this is him but this is the pic that comes up when searching.

That's a photo of last week's UVA shooter, Christopher Darnell Jones Jr.

I'm trying to find a pic of Aldrich but not having any luck. You'd think there'd be a booking photo from the bomb threat he made last year.

Not as long.

But still about 4 ft long as most muskets, whereas the PENNSYLVANIA rifle would be about 4.5+

All about 10 lbs.
