On October 31, 2015, a shooting occurred near downtown Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States.[1] The shooting began around 8:45 a.m., though a 911 call was placed 10 minutes earlier[2] on the morning of Saturday, October 31, which was Halloween.[1] Three people were randomly shot and killed[3] by a gunman, later identified as 33-year-old Noah Harpham, as they were walking down Prospect Street[4] near downtown Colorado Springs.[1] A man riding a bicycle was the first victim shot[5] after pleading for his life, according to eyewitness reports.[6] The gunman then turned and ran, killing two women. These women were either killed randomly as the gunman ran down the street, firing at random[6] or sitting on a porch targeted by the gunman.[7] The gunman was later killed in a shootout with four police officers in which he was struck once.[8][1][9] In total, there were three crime scenes. This was the first of two shootings in Colorado Springs in less than a month; the second was the Planned Parenthood mass shooting, 28 days later.
