Shooting suspect who left one dead, two injured in Alamosa, brought into custody after manhunt

ALAMOSA POLICE DEPARTMENT

UPDATE: With the help of the U.S Marshals and the Colorado Bureau of Investigations, along with multiple law enforcement agencies, the Chief of Alamosa Police Department (APD) says that 44-year-old Henry Corral is now in custody.

APD says that after Corral crashed his car, a perimeter of 30 square miles was set up around where he fled on foot. Law enforcement then searched every building and property within that area.

Ultimately, APD says that a farmer reported to authorities that they saw Corral walking in a field, seemingly in the direction going back towards Alamosa, and he was taken into custody just after 6:45 p.m.

An update on the status of the two injured shooting victims is set to be released Monday morning, per APD.

ALAMOSA, Colo. (KRDO) - Federal, state, and local police agencies are currently searching door-to-door for 44-year-old Henry Corral.

Around 2 a.m. on Sunday morning, Corral allegedly shot three people at The Sunset Inn.

Alamosa Police Chief George Dingfelder says after the shooting, Corral crashed his car near County Road 12 and 106.

Corral allegedly attempted to steal another car nearby, but was unsuccessful and then took off running.

Chief Dingfelder said one of the victims is dead and the other two were taken by flight to a front range hospital in critical condition.

It is too early to determine what lead up to the shooting or what Corral's relationship to the victims are, according to Chief Dingfelder.

Multiple agencies and aircraft are searching south and west of Alamosa to find Corral.

If you know where Corral is or have any information about this incident, call 911 immediately.
