Suspect in custody pulls gun and fires at police at station

Denver police arrested the suspect, and transported him to the police station where he pulled a gun and fired  a shot at officers.  Officers then shot the suspect, ending the gun fight.  Obviously, police failed to adequately search the suspect. He had been arrested on drug charges and an outstanding felony warrant. This was not a jaywalking case. Fortunately, this example of sloppy police work did not result in any deaths.  Complacency can sometimes be fatal.
