LODO, 2am- What could possibly go wrong?

Direct Pressure or a band-aid.

Pretty crazy video though... so many amped up people, including the cops.

That looks like a good shoot to me. The guy definitely pointed the gun directly at the officer, whether intentionally or not. Next time he's told to put the gun down, maybe he'll just put the gun down.

Officer had some mad reaction time, too.

I agree with you. I'm watching the replay in a chair at a desk. At 2AM with whatever was going on there and tension obviously high, being flagged by a pistol certainly warrants a response.
That said, the guy had it by the handle, down by the magazine well, with 2 fingers.

I think it's interesting the two cops in the video don't seem at all concerned with the other shots fired. Just duck and cover. No other response.

Lodo at anytime is sketchy. Had to go there to renew CCW. What a shithole.

I worked for a telecom co. at 17th & Curtis for many years and had to go there day & night all the time, on call 24x7x365. I miss that job, but sure as hell don't miss downtown Denver. Although there was that little cart with the killer tamales.....
