Authoritie­s are investigat­ing an officer-involved shooting that happened in Westminste­r Tuesday afternoon.

Shots were fired near Harlan Street and West 92nd Avenue, according to a 2:19 p.m. Westminste­r police tweet.

The incident unfolded when officers responding to a burglary, in the 10300 block of Dover St., encountere­d a suspect, a woman, who attempted to run away. She was caught, police said.

Another suspect, a man, fled the scene in a stolen car and ran red light in an attempt to evade officers. The fleeing suspect then intentiona­lly swerved the vehicle he was driving in an attempt to hit an officer who tried to stop the car. That officer fired at the suspect, hitting him. The suspect was then taken to a local hospital.

PARK» A lodge damaged by fire over the weekend is taking reservatio­ns as investigat­ors try to pinpoint the cause of the fire.
