For TC's consideration, Reuters has published an article about the incident: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-colorado-shooting/colorado-deputy-sheriff-killed-during-domestic-disturbance-call-idUSKBN1EP0GL

A gunman opened fire on sheriffs deputies responding to a report of a domestic disturbance near Denver on Sunday, killing one of the officers, before the suspect was shot and apparently killed, the Douglas County Sheriffs Office said.

Four other deputies and two civilians were shot by the suspect, who was no longer a threat, the sheriffs office said on its Twitter account. There was no immediate word on the condition of the injured officers or civilians.

The deputies were responding to a call of shots fired in a residential area in Douglas County, about 16 miles south of Denver, around 6 a.m. local time, said Jason Blanchard, a spokesman for the sheriffs office.

County officials were setting up an emergency shelter for those displaced by the incident, citing the size and scope of the investigation.


So there you go. Reuters - a least biased (or arguably center-left) source - has felt it worthwhile to make a national headline out of a domestic incident that probably isn't of any interest to anyone outside of Denver, CO.

Make of that what you will.
