Still developing, suspect at large:
http://kdvr.com/2018/01/24/police-in...th-and-corona/
Extremely heavy LE on scene, including K9 based on sky9 view
Prayers going out for the officer.
Hope the officer pulls thru. As for the shooter, send the fucker to his maker in the most painful manner.
8671 DeSoto one in custody matching the suspect description.
God bless the Officer and all of his family.
A drown is being launched at this time with FLIR. Air one is also on the hunt looking for two others involved.
There are two helicopters circling. I saw an older lady neighbor running to her house from her car. Police telling people to stay inside and not be near windows, I guess word got out. Wife says people are posting pictures of cops in their yard with weapons drawn and K9's and stuff, but I don't know how to check that.

Fox News saying that someone was just arrested. They had a lady calling in and sending in video of a guy being arrested in her front yard, but I missed it. Not sure if it's the same arrest as was already mentioned in the thread. Must be because the helicopters are still circling and widening the search.
ETA: Super classy of Fox to film crying family members showing up at Denver Health and zoom in on their faces.
From news sources I’m seeing, doesn’t look like he made it.
Rest Easy

Jeremy Hubbard called them off. He looks genuinely upset over this.Quote:

What is the deal with no description of suspects being released? Sounds like they caught one but my scanner says they are still looking for others.
Helicopters are gone.
Still searching for 2 additional suspects, Light skinned blacks or dark skinned hispanics, dressed in all black.Quote:

He was shot in Thornton but drove past a lot of hospitals to take him to Denver Health. Why?
Denver Health is a Premier Level One Trauma facility. Other hospitals were on the way but they are not trained or equipped for such injuries. Denver Health is the best of the best in the Rocky Mountain area. There are air ambulances stationed in Fire Stone, Aurora Medical Center and St Anthony's. Those assets may not have been available. RIP and thank you for your service. [Salute]

Closer hospitals are not equipped to handle that type of casualty.Quote:

I'm stunned to see this happening again. This is so tragic.
RIP, Deputy Gumm.

I see. I was just asking, because it seemed like the thing to do would be the closest hospital. But I guess his injuries were bad enough that they needed a top Hospital. Too bad they couldn't save him.Quote:

Went to bed hearing that one of the suspects had been caught but this morning there are still two at large.
RIP Deputy Gumm
Sad to hear the news.

So tragic. I hope they are forced to neutralize the perps when they find them.
That neighborhood is just getting worse and worse. This is the second incident there in just the past few months. I lived very close to where this happened several years back and it was pretty bad then too. I'd hear gunshots on a regular basis. So many meth users and gang members. Such a sad state of affairs.
Yeah we lived on 104th and Irma for a couple years, so glad we moved away.Quote:

The kind words are truly appreciated. Today was a rough day. Two of my coworkers were called out to the scene last night, one is with our peer support team (he had a long night), the other took one of our vehicles over for the procession to the coroner's office. One of our SGTs was called out to assist SWAT with the rest of our Mobile Field Force Team (basically riot unit). It's tough losing a brother. But the outpouring of support and kind words do help. I cannot say I knew Heath, but have exchanged greetings once or twice in passing. Our commander informed us at briefing this is our 1st line of duty death since 1988.

RIP Deputy Heath Gumm, EOW 01/24/2018. Rest easy brother, we'll take it from here.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...289a82fc73.jpg

I was following this on MetroNet last night at work. So many emotions flooding in over this.
