Minutes after a gunman opened fire at an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs, killing five people and wounding at least 17 others, officers rushed into the chaotic scene and forcefully detained the man who helped stop the shooting.
Richard Fierro was at Club Q with his wife, daughter and her boyfriend on Saturday watching a drag show when gunfire erupted across the bar. The 15-year Army veteran's combat instincts kicked in, he said, and Fierro tackled the attacker to the ground before he could make his way to the patio, where people had fled.
