A so far undisclosed number of Sheriffs deputies were shot Sunday morning and a Douglas County Sheriffs Office SWAT team is at the scene, a home near the 3400 block of County Line Road, according to Lauren Lekander, DCSO spokeswoman.
We have multiple officers down, said Deputy Jason Blanchard of the incident in Highlands Ranch. We are not giving numbers or status at this point, we are still working on getting the suspect in custody.
Denver 7 reported hearing shots fired as a reporter arrived at the scene. Deputies were responding to a disturbance call when shots were fired from the home near Colorado Boulevard shortly before 6 a.m., Lekander said.
We have SWAT out there setting up and preparing to go in right now, Lekander said at about 7:15 a.m. Video broadcast by Denver 7 shows an Arapahoe County Sheriff Bomb Squad truck at the scene. In a Code Red the Sheriffs office told residents to shelter in place, avoid windows and stay away from exterior walls.
