An unidentified man was shot and killed outside the offices of Colorado Gov. Bill Ritter.
The unidentified man refused orders to drop his gun, spokesman Evan Dreyer said. Four or five shots were heard, but authorities would not say how many times the patrolman fired.
The gunman did not fire his weapon, police spokesman Sonny Jackson said.
Before he was shot by a member of the governor's security detail, the gunman said, "I am the emperor and I'm here to take over state government," Dreyer said.
The shooting occurred about 2 p.m. in a hall outside the governor's offices on the first floor of the Capitol.

did he have any clothes on????
i guess that's why the iraqi insurgents blow themselves up.
bombs usually beat bullets.
YDG, he sure did, they were the best looking clothes I've ever seen!
Rube, we should take the advise of Mr. Miagi? "Best way, not get hit, not be there when blow arrives."
Dang, America's first emperor and we shoot him. No wonder ET stays hid, he knows what will happen if he sticks his pointy little head out..........
Maybe instead of killing him, they could have let him try to run the state government for a few days, probably would have shot himself.
