Richard Grande, 55, was fatally shot by Glenwood Springs police after he pulled a firearm during an encounter related to an outstanding felony warrant for firearm charges. The incident occurred at approximately 1 p.m. at the Glenwood Meadows Shopping Center, where officers recognized Grande, who immediately brandished a high-capacity firearm upon seeing them. Officers retreated and fired at Grande as he moved towards his vehicle, where he ultimately took cover. After backup arrived, Grande was found dead at the scene, with an autopsy confirming multiple gunshot wounds as the cause of death. The police chief stated that no officers or bystanders were injured, and the investigation into the shooting is ongoing, with the officer involved placed on administrative leave. This incident highlights the rarity of officer-involved shootings in the area, especially in such a public setting during a holiday weekend.
