A search is ongoing in Douglas County for a driver who crashed a car fleeing from a state trooper and investigators suspect the driver was involved in a Colorado Springs shooting earlier on Saturday.
The incident started at about 7 p.m. when officers in Colorado Springs were called to the Pins and Needles Tattoo parlor, 3737 Drennan Road, on a report of shooting with a man down, according to Colorado Springs Police Department crime blotter.
Officer didn't find a victim, but they did find shell casings and the front bumper of a car that had been reported stolen in Denver.
Witnesses told police that a "rap battle" was taking place at the tattoo shop and a rapper angered people who were at the show.
Tensions flared and shots were fired, the police blotter said. Both the victim and shooter fled the scene.
A trooper spotted the car with the missing bumper on Interstate 25 northbound in the Monument area, said Sgt. Michael Baker, a Colorado State Patrol spokesman.
There were several people in the car, a green Honda, and the trooper began following it. In Douglas County, the trooper activated lights and siren in an attempt to stop the Honda, but the driver tried to speed away.
A short time later the Honda crashed near Tomah Road.
The driver fled on foot, Baker said, leaving four other people behind in the car.
The highway was shut down by the crash for a short time and the Douglas County Sheriff's Office made emergency calls to nearby residents warning them of the driver who fled.
Officers from several departments were searching for the suspect Saturday night.
The four people in the car, a 28-year-old woman from New Mexico, two 20-year-old men and a 17-year-old boy, were not injured in the crash. They're were held and questioned by investigators about the Colorado Springs shooting and the incident on the highway.
