Colorado cop kills active shooter outside Highlands Ranch family fun center: sheriff

A Colorado sheriff’s deputy shot and killed a suspected active shooter who was planning to attack a family fun center south of Denver, authorities said.

Cops responded to reports of an active shooter at Main Event Highlands Ranch — a venue that has bowling, laser tag, mini golf and a ton of other family-friendly activities — around 11:50 p.m. Saturday and located a man in the parking lot with a gun.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office said deputies told the man to drop the weapon, but he turned it on the officers, prompting one to shoot him. The gunman, who has not been named, was pronounced dead at the scene, according to CBS News.
