Police in a Colorado city just outside of Denver said "multiple deputies" are down after being shot while responding to a disturbance call early Sunday.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office said in a tweet that citizens in Highlands Ranch should shelter in place and avoid windows.

1) I've never heard of that happening within hours of the event; still less for a "domestic dispute".

2) Why so d@mn *many* vehicles?

3) Why did news of this motorcade make it all the way to U.K. online papers the same day!?

There were posted, in the last few days before this, Twitter claims of 2 nukes smuggled into Houston, destined for Las Vegas and Denver, to detonate New Year's Eve.

“———it all the way to U.K. online papers the same day!?”

There is no “all the way” anymore-—online is online.

The motorcade procession is SOP in many places when a first responder dies in the line of duty. Not sure if the bomb squad was actually there or just the bomb squad truck, which doubles as an armored vehicle for the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office.

Why was the bomb squad on site?

My source who is at the crime scene said that in rapidly unfolding situations like this, the bomb squad, SWAT, and snipers are routinely deployed.

Which was exactly the point of the last sentence in my Post if you bothered to read it.

Better to watch those guys trying to kill the Police while cowering in fear than actually doing something, right?

I guess the guy in Texas that went after the Murderer at the Church is Rambo to you. The Police there appreciated what he did.

Do you call people who Conceal Carry Rambo too?

“Domestic Violence” was the dispatch, there is no news that I have seen on what really was going on. One twitter report had an ISIS flag flying, no other news at all (and I am suspicious of a lone tweet.)

The rumor of an ISIS flag is totally and completely false according to my source, who has been at the crime scene since shortly after the shooting.

That's deceptive. It should be "01 out of 10 people understand binary.

I've *never* heard of such a motorcade happening the same day as the first responder's death before.

And then there's this, from 19 min ago on reddit:

http://www.reddit.com/r/CBTS_Stream/comments/7na57ns/no_call_sign_and_blocked_aircraft_circa_denver/ I had to type in the link and contents by hand, it wouldn't copy or paste.

I've been watching "blocked" (no light details) aircraft on flightradar24 for the last few hours. A blocked aircraft from Fort Lauderdale just landed at Denver half an hour ago, and another blocked aircraft, from Lake Havasu Airpot, Arizona, is flying over Colorado now. There have been several "no call sign" aircraft flying near Denver.

In CA years ago they were trying to pass another Sales Tax Increase to fund Police and Fire (Pensions)...

They had a Commercial with a Woman cowering in fear in her Bedroom trying to call 911 when someone was breaking in. All she got was a busy signal.

A typical FReeper would be reaching into their Nightstand and retrieving their Glock, not crying in the corner hoping 911 would pick up.

Like they say, when seconds count, the Police will be there in minutes.

Srsly?

Correct, I knew as soon as I pushed “post,” but their is no edit feature on FR. You’re the first to comment on my mistake.

There is no “all the way” anymore-—online is online.

And there isn't really a "UK" and "US" press anymore either. All the major media outlets have freelance reporters all over the world.

Kenda is reporting on a whole career in homicide. My guess is Colorado Springs is safer than the average city.

IMO, failure to show the race and legal status of the deceased shooter means he is likely an illegal with a violent history.

Can you say MS-13?

Some are itching to be targets around these parts. Generally the ones bragging about their gun collection.
