A Pueblo Police Officer who shot and killed a suspect this morning was hit in the chest and arm before he returned fire, according to investigators.
The shots came from a BB gun in the hands of a man who was reported to have shot out several car windows before the officer arrived in the 2000 block of Columbia near the intersection of Pueblo Blvd. and Northern.
The officer was treated and released at a hospital. The suspect was shot in the chest and stomach. Investigators say several people saw what happened. There were no surveillance cameras which captured what happened, though the police car did have an operational camera which has not been viewed by investigators.
It is believed the officer fired 8 rounds.
"Colorado Law authorizes law enforcement officers to use lethal force when confronted with imminent death or someone else is confronted with imminent death," said Chief Lou Velez, Pueblo Police Chief. "A weapon was leveled at the officer and the officer was shot."
The suspect was 21 years old. His name has not been released. He did have some minor criminal history. An autopsy is planned.
The officer was placed on leave with pay pending the outcome of the investigation.
