Gunman kills 5 in Colorado nightclub before he is stopped by patrons

WASHINGTON, 21 November 2022, (TON): Police said “a gunman opened fire inside a LGBTQ nightspot in Colorado Springs late, killing at least five people and injuring 25 others before being stopped by heroic clubgoers.”

Authorities said “they were investigating whether the attack was motivated by hate.”

According to officials “police identified the suspect as Anderson Lee Aldrich, 22, and said he used a long rifle. He was taken into police custody shortly after the shooting began and was being treated for injuries.”

The shooting was reminiscent of the 2016 Pulse club massacre when a gunman killed 49 people at the gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, before he was fatally shot by police.
