WASHINGTON (HRNW) – The death toll from a shooting spree across multiple locations in Colorado, which ended when the gunman was himself shot dead, has risen to five, police said Tuesday.
The trail of shooting began around 5:00 pm on Monday and unfolded across at least four different locations in the cities of Denver and Lakewood, said police, who had initially put the death toll at four.
Two women were killed and a man was wounded in the first location in Denver, police said, with another man shot dead outside his residence.
The gunman then traveled to neighboring Lakewood, where he fatally shot another man in the Lucky 13 tattoo parlor and wounded another individual.
Working off information gathered from the previous assaults, Lakewood officers were able to identify the shooter as he moved locations.
