I'm under fire! Cover me! (Shooting outside our office.)
 

Our office overlooks the State Capitol, and there's a big ol' park in front of the Capitol. My offices faces west, but several of our folks face south and have a good view of the park.

A few minutes ago, they got a good view of a police chase. Some dude started shooting in the park and a whole slew of police cars descended on the area. One of my employees actually saw the guy while he was shooting and all the people were running. (And apparently there was a second guy? Maybe it was a duel.)

He was apparently quite incompetent because he didn't actually hit anybody.

2 men arrested in Civic Center Park shooting; no injuries reported

DENVER - Denver police have arrested two men after a shooting at Denver Civic Center Park that forced a lockdown at the State Capitol Building on Thursday afternoon.

No one was injured in the shooting, Denver Police said via Twitter.

The two suspects were arrested a few blocks from the park, police said.

Colfax Avenue was closed between Broadway and Lincoln by the police investigation.

Police recovered a .40-caliber handgun in an alley near Colfax and Grant, 7NEWS photojournalist Brad Bogott reported from the scene.

Gov. John Hickenlooper's spokesman, Eric Brown, said the State Capitol Building was locked down. There governor is away from the building, visiting the Denver Broncos training camp in Dove Valley, Brown added.

Colfax Avenue was closed in front of the Capitol as police collected evidence and put up yellow crime scene tape.

That is a hard color of green to read RM.

Can that be fixed?

Don't take any bullets it can wait.

the second guy is hiding behind the bushes on the grassy knoll

in before this becomes a left vs right gun control thread!

Duel. :p

I'm suddenly thirsty for lime kool-aid

Good old Colfax. Some things never change. Sounds like a great view from your office. I love how they do the capital for Christmas.

Broncos front office team building excercise.

Ummm, there were two of them, so ...

Okay, I'll change it.

You have to figure that Von Miller is involved somehow.

Maybe they'll get a player to murder his baby momma then off himself in the team parking lot.

The goal is to make the reader feel like they're actually in the park with the shooter. It's my new way of enriching my writing style.

It is indeed a nice view. We have a great view of any protests.

I love that part of town. One of the nicer, personality laden metro areas I've ever seen.
