Four Colorado Springs officers who shot and killed an armed man were justified in their use of deadly force, according to a police shooting review.
At the time of the shooting, Gregory was wanted in Mississippi on a warrant for attempted murder. A CSPD Violent Offender Fugitive Task Force and officers were assigned with apprehending Gregory, who was believed to be staying at a Colorado Springs hotel.
Murphy, in uniform, spotted Gregory behind a business at North Circle Drive and East Bijou Street, and the fugitive drew a gun on the officer, according to the review. Murphy fired 14 times at Gregory, who ran north along a business and through parking lots. Murphy hit Gregory with gunfire at least once.
The three other officers joined in the foot chase leading to a parking lot off of Gunnison Street and North Circle Drive where Gregory “slowed down,” according to the review. Officers “verbally ordered” Gregory to drop his weapon, he instead pointed it at officers. Radke, Wright and Price fired at Gregory, who was pronounced dead on the scene. Radke and Wright both fired six shots, Price fired one shot. Gregory’s loaded 9mm semi-automatic Taurus was recovered at the scene.
