Police: At Least 1 Dead In Shooting, Stabbing At Denver Coliseum

UPDATED: Jan. 30, 2016, 4:42 PM ET

Police are responding Saturday to reports of a shooting and at least one stabbing that broke out at a motorcycle show at the Denver Coliseum.

Denver Health said on Twitter that nine people were being transported to area hospitals, and Denver police confirmed one fatality with “numerous” others wounded.

Denver Police spokeswoman Raquel Lopez said in a press conference a disturbance that involved shots fired and at least one stabbing broke out around 12:48 p.m. local time at the Colorado Motorcycle Expo, which was being held this weekend at the Coliseum.

She said one person was dead, but would not confirm how many other victims were involved. Police are not calling the event a “mass casualty” incident at this time, she said.

Lopez also said no suspect in custody and the investigation is ongoing.

  1. All indications are that it’s rival biker gangs. Let’s see if it’s the same clowns from last years brawl.

  2. There are so many serious issues in this world to be concerned with, I’d pretty much forgotten “biker gangs” was even still a real thing.

  3. Nobody saw any Muslims. Cable news moves on. NRA deplores the stabbing.

  4. Yes, I can hear Wayne LaPierre now: “The cutlery industry needs to start taking responsibility for the carnage it causes. When will these people be held accountable?”

  5. Harley drag bar!!!
