Shot Fired At Obama Headquarters In Denver (Photos)
A shot was fired into a glass window at President Obama’s campaign headquarters in Denver, Colorado. Reports state no one was injured and police reportedly have information about a car seen leaving the scene.
“No one was injured, though people were inside the offices when the incident occurred, said Denver police spokeswoman Raquel Lopez,” the Denver Post reported:
“It looks like it was one shot that was fired into the structure,” she said.
The incident happened at about 3 p.m. at the campaign’s offices on West Ninth Avenue near Acoma Street, Lopez said.
