COLORADO SPRINGS, CO – A man is dead after being shot by Colorado Springs Police Monday night.
Officers went to a motel on South Nevada yesterday afternoon, looking for 31 year old Corky Oliver, who was wanted for robbery.
Oliver barricaded himself inside his room, and said he was holding a woman hostage.
After six hours of failed negotiations, a SWAT team entered, shots were fired, and Oliver was killed.
The female was taken to a hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
The officers involved are on routine administrative leave during an investigation into the shooting.
