Colorado Springs Police find multiple dead after responding to a call of shots fired
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) - Just after 8:00 a.m. Colorado Springs Police officers received a call of shots fired in the 800 block of South Union, but when officers arrived they found three adult males dead.
The Colorado Springs Homicide Unit has taken over the investigation, but CSPD hasn't officially made a statement on the nature of the investigation.
Yohan Harper said she was home watching TV when she heard gun shots.
"I heard five shots and were, like, really close together. So I checked out the window to make sure it wasn't like, because we've had issues with people, like breaking the cars, breaking the apartments before. So I locked all the windows and then called 911," said Harper.
Cameron Sanders said he was on his way to throw the trash when he saw an unusual scene.
"I notice that, it was a lot of people around the dumpster area and everything," said Sanders. "They're just letting me know that, hey, is a crime scene going on, and you just need to stay back and everything. We don't want anything tampered with."
Our KRDO13 Photographer on the scene reported that a large section of the apartment complex was blocked off due to the ongoing police investigation.
