Suspect in shooting at El Paso County Courthouse to appear in court today
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KRDO) -- 29-year-old Shaquille Laneil Brown is set to appear in El Paso County Court this morning.
Brown is facing charges of first-degree murder, possession of a weapon by a previous offender, and child abuse. Brown is suspected of shooting and killing 28-year-old William Winters outside of El Paso County Courthouse on November 16, 2023.
Court documents state that video obtained by CSPD showed Brown walking towards Winters, firing several times, and Winters dropping a car seat with a baby in it as he fell to the ground. Police say that the child received injuries consistent with a short fall. The video then shows Brown standing above Winters and firing several more times. Brown then walked away before El Paso County deputies arrested him.
Brown is set to appear in El Paso County Court for a motions hearing at 8:30 a.m.
