One person died and one was injured following a shooting early Monday in the 6100 block of Pemmican Point in unincorporated El Paso County.
El Paso County sheriff’s deputies and Fountain police responded to the area approximately 10 miles south of Fountain after a shooting was reported at 3:22 a.m., the sheriff’s office said in a news release.
Two adults who were shot were “transported away from the scene” but met with first responders near the Pikes Peak International Raceway.
One person died from their injuries and a second was taken to a local hospital and is being treated, the sheriff’s office said.
Deputies and officers went to the address where the shooting was reported and used “tactical resources” to search the area because of the amount of debris and storage at the property. A suspect was found at an adjacent property, according to the sheriff’s office.
The sheriff’s office did not identify the suspect or victims but confirmed they were all adults.
