Authorities in Colorado search for suspect in shooting that left one person dead and two seriously injured

ALAMOSA, Colorado (AP) — Authorities searched door-to-door and by plane Sunday for the suspect in a triple shooting that left one person dead at a hotel in a small southern Colorado town.

The suspect, Henry Corral, 44, is considered armed and dangerous, Alamosa police said in a social media post.

Officers found the three victims after responding to a call reporting shots fired from the Sunset Inn around 2 a.m. Sunday.

One of the victims died and the other two were flown to a hospital by helicopter in critical condition, Alamosa Police Chief George Dingfelder told KRDO-TV.

Corral fled the scene of the accident in a car he had wrecked, then unsuccessfully attempted to steal a car before fleeing on foot, authorities said.

The search for him involved federal, state and local law enforcement in an area south and west of Alamosa, a city of about 10,000 residents about 30 miles from the New Mexico border.
