| There is an emergency where you live or where you work. | |
| And you said you don't know the relationship between the male and the female. | |
| I do not. | |
| I do not. | |
| You said he was just taken into custody half an hour ago. | |
| With that, his negotiations failed. | |
| Was that the entry part of the negotiation? | |
| So we made a forced entry. | |
| Officers did. | |
| At least one officer fired his weapon. | |
| So there was an exchange of gunfire at that point. | |
| I don't know the extent between the suspect and the officers. | |
| I just know at least one officer did fire his weapon and then we were able to take him into custody. | |
| I can't say because I wasn't part of the negotiations. | |
| I don't know, you know, what the mental state was of our suspect at this point. | |
| So I can't really speculate on that. | |
| Was that a Broomfield police officer in tactical gear that went in the apartment? | |
| Was a Broomfield police officer. | |
| I do not know if he was in tactical gear. | |
| Do you know if the woman was shot? | |
| We're talking about both adults and some women here? | |
| Yes, two adults, one female, one male. | |
| Do we know if the woman was taken by officer fire or from previous shootings? | |
| Is there any details on that? | |
| I don't have any information on that. | |
| And do you know what kind of weapon the officer used? | |
| Was it a handgun or a rifle of some kind? | |
| I don't have any information on that. | |
| And they would have been wearing a body camera, right? | |
| Yes, correct. | |
| All of our Broomfield officers wear body-worn cameras, and if they have their weapons drawn, then that automatically initiates the body cams to begin recording. | |
| That is something that we'll need to look into. | |
| I don't have the details due to their relationship. | |
| Anything else that anybody can think of? | |
| If nothing further, this will be the only press briefing today, but I will continue to put out updates via our social media, Facebook and Twitter or X. Also, we'll put out a press release later today once I get some more comprehensive information. | |
| I'll share those on our social media as well as on our website, ruinfield.org slash police. | |
| And if you guys don't have anything further, I think that's it. | |
| Okay. | |
| When you file arrest charges or when you file charges against him, Do we need to bombard you with questions? | |
| Are you going to put that on next? | |
| We'll put all that, yes. | |
| Once we get the suspect's name, any information on age, any charges, anything like that, I will make sure that we put that out. | |
| And would you guys consider releasing any body cam footage sooner than later? | |
| Because sometimes the police department would release a little bit beforehand. | |
| Is that something you would consider for you? | |
| Yeah, that's actually a question that I can't answer because we want to determine what the investigation and what commands and the investigative team decides is best for the department. | |
| So it's always worth asking, but I'll tell you, we typically don't release it when it's an ongoing investigation. | |
| Thank you guys. | |
| Yes, he did fire and it did hit vehicles, other buildings and other units. | |
| So this is going to be an active crime scene for a while because we have to process where those gunshots went, look for anything. | |
| Everything. | |
| Crime scene and it's going to be closed for a while. | |
| What was the nature of the person was he to shoot and kill a woman? | |
| I don't know the name. | |
| About all I can confirm right now. | |
| I do not have an age or a name of the suspect. | |
| I do not. | |
| Just the Arista Flats apartments. | |
| Right here. | |
| It was about 30 minutes. | |
| a big bang and then a whole bunch of other bangs. | |
| Entry ended officers fire there. | |
| Correct. | |
| Force entry and one. | |
| Your fire is what? | |
| I don't. | |
| We do not know. | |
| He was giving us a lot of different details about what he was possibly armed with, but I don't have that information. | |
| I do not. | |
| I do not know the relationship between them. | |
| Have you been tissueed in this building before? | |
| You've been at this particular apartment but any other threats or disturbances? | |
| Right, obviously there's a lot of people that live in these apartments. | |
| In terms of a possible history that we have with this individual, I don't know the details on that yet. | |
| Can you talk about the health of your life and the success? | |
| Sure. - Obviously it's been four hours. | |
| It's about three and a half hours that we were in negotiations surrounding law enforcement agencies to figure out, of course, the best way to resolve it as safely as possible. | |
| You're okay. | |
| Quite a few of us have remarked that we have not seen that device, if you will, like a front-end loader with a shield brought up to the apartment and used by your previous video. | |
| Do you have any knowledge of that and its purpose and how it was used in this case? | |
| Sure. | |
| So we know that we have our vehicle. | |
| I am not aware of different vehicles. | |
| I'm going to send that out for you. | |
| At this time, Why | |
| were they taken to the h were injured. | |
| So I'm not going t injuries at this time. | |
| I do not. | |
| I do not. | |
| I can talk about those injuries right now. | |
| I don't know that either. | |
| He was aiming for our officers as well. | |
| That is why we called this an active shooter. | |
| I got a lot of questions from the media initially. | |
| Is this a barricaded hostage situation or is this an active shooter? | |
| And initially it was both. | |
| I mean, we had somebody who was actively firing at our officers, so a lot of people were in danger. | |
| I don't know if you said from the beginning, but is it on the back of the call? | |
| It was a call that came in for a disturbance. | |
| There was somebody nearby that heard you. | |
| They will tell you you're hired directly throughout the process. |
