A scary incident to report from Colorado, where we'd rather be discussing the top-25 Buffs but instead, must address the man carrying a machete in the school's athletics facility near the football field.

The Daily Camera reported that the Champions Center was placed on lockdown Wednesday morning as a result of reports that an armed man was "menacing" people in and around the facility. His refusal to put the machete down resulted in shots being fired at the suspect and he was pronounced dead on the scene.
