COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV) – Colorado Springs Police said they were called to the 5600 block of South Buckskin Pass Dr. on Dec. 17 around 2:58 p.m. They said they received a call reporting a domestic disturbance where the caller said his ex-girlfriend was at his home, ringing the doorbell and knocking. The man also said his ex-girlfriend had a warrant out for her arrest. Police said they knew of the suspect 43-year-old Kari Anstett before arriving at the home due to previous calls involving the man and Anstett. They also said Anstett was known to carry a gun. They attempted to speak with the suspect as she walked around the male’s porch. As the officer walked up to the suspect, Anstett reportedly turned around, pointing a handgun at the officer trying to speak with her, and then at a second officer arriving at the home. Police said the first officer fired three shots towards Anstett, hitting her twice. Officers then reportedly provided medical aid until emergency services arrived to assist. Police said Anstett was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. She was treated and then booked into the El Paso County Criminal Justice Center. Police said no one besides the suspect was injured in the incident. Officers said Anstett faces two counts of first-degree assault, violation of a protection order and other unrelated charges.
