Three people lost their lives in a shooting in Denver, Colorado including a police officer and the suspect.

The incident occurred at a downtown shopping district in the Denver suburb of Arvada, also referred to as Olde Town Arvada.

Police fatally shot the suspect after he allegedly shot a civilian who was described as a “Samaritan,” the police said.

Deputy Chief Ed Brady told a press conference on Monday afternoon that the officer responded to a call at 1:15 p.m. that reported a “suspicious” incident near the library. About 15 minutes later, a 911 call reported that shots were fired, and the officer was hit and killed.

“There is no threat to the public at this point,” Brady said, reported the Denver Post. “We’re not searching for anybody else.”

 

Both the officer and the suspect were confirmed as male. Police have yet to identify any of those who died publicly.

The circumstances of the shooting were not elaborated on further, but the police did say that no one else is believed to have been involved. It comes after the police had earlier said there were two suspects.
