COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KOAA) — A woman is dead following a shooting Tuesday morning and a suspect is in custody, according to the Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPD).
CSPD says a call reporting a shooting came in around 11:30 a.m. at the Mountain Shadows Apartments, which are located along Fontmore Road.
CSPD says they were searching for a man who left the scene in a vehicle. They say the Colorado State Patrol located the vehicle in Colorado City and took the man into custody.
What led up to the shooting is unclear at this time, however, police believe the woman and the man knew each other. No one else was injured in this incident, according to CSPD.
Due to the proximity to Coronado High School to the scene, News5 reached out to Colorado Springs District 11, who say they were aware of the situation but not taking action based on CSPD recommendations.
