(COLORADO SPRINGS) — The El Paso County Sheriff's Office (EPSO) has arrested a man in connection to a shooting that occurred on Thursday, Oct. 31. At around 2:20 p.m. on Thursday, EPSO received multiple reports of a shooting in the 200 block of Cunningham Drive in the Security area. PREVIOUS COVERAGE: EPSO investigating shooting in Security When they arrived, deputies issued a shelter-in-place for nearby neighbors and secured the scene. Deputies found two men with non-life-threatening injuries who were taken to the hospital for evaluation. EPSO determined the incident stemmed from a disturbance the previous night. Everyone involved knew each other. EPSO said the suspect, 77-year-old Gary Spicer, confronted his son-in-law, which led to a verbal fight. The son-in-law's roommate intervened, and the son-in-law left the area. Then, another fight ensued between the roommate and Spicer, during which the 77-year-old fired his weapon. EPSO said Spicer was disarmed and subdued until law enforcement arrived. Spicer faces charges of attempted second-degree murder, first-degree assault, and menacing. He was booked into the El Paso County Jail after being treated at the hospital. The roommate was also released from the hospital the same day. The Sheriff's Office said this is an active investigation. Anyone with information regarding this case is asked to call the Sheriff's Office Tip Line at (719) 520-7777.
