“I went to the ground as soon as I heard the rounds.'
Former Army Maj. Richard Fierro never thought he would need to use the combat skills he learned in the military while on a night out with his family. But that’s just what happened Saturday night as Fierro, his wife and daughter, his daughter’s boyfriend and family friends were at Club Q in Colorado Springs celebrating a birthday and watching a drag show. Shots rang out at the LGBTQ nightclub just before midnight.
That’s when Fierro noticed the suspect also had a pistol, which Fierro said he took and used to hit the gunman. “I found a crease between his armor and his head and I just started whaling away with his gun,” Fierro said. “I told him while I was hitting him, ‘I’m going to f****** kill you man, because you tried to kill my friends.’ My family was in there, my little girl was in there.” While Fierro was hitting the suspect with a gun, the other man was kicking him in the head.
