William Winters Obituary, Death – Earlier this week, the name of the man who was killed outside of the El Paso County courthouse was made public by the Colorado Springs police department. Mr. William Winters, age 28 and a resident of Colorado Springs, has been identified as the victim of the shooting by the El Paso Coroner’s Office. Winters was reportedly shot as he entered the courthouse as he was carrying a child in a car seat, as stated in the records filed by the court. Nobody else sustained major injuries as a result of the incident.

Approximately a short time later, court security agents detained Shaquille Laneil Brown, who was 29 years old at the time of the shooting. Brown stated in an arrest complaint that was acquired by The Gazette that he shot and murdered Winters because, earlier this year, Winters assaulted Brown at a pub in downtown Colorado Springs, causing injuries that he claimed required surgery. Brown believed that Winters was responsible for Brown’s injuries.

“I told you I was going to get you,” Brown yelled after shooting Winters, and then proceeded to fire further gunshots at the victim while he was lying on the ground, according to a witness who is included in the affidavit. The witness stated that they observed Brown kill Winters. According to the affidavit, Winters was shot at least six times, with two of the wounds being to the head and four being to the body throughout the incident. It was announced on Thursday by the police that they were continuing their investigation into the circumstances surrounding the relationship between Winters and Brown.

According to the documents kept by the court, Brown has a lengthy criminal history in El Paso County that dates back to 2014. At this time, he is being held in custody at the El Paso County Jail on suspicion of first-degree murder, child abuse, and possession of a firearm by a past offender. On November 27th, he is due to make his initial appearance in court. If you have any information on the shooting, please contact the Colorado Springs Police Department at (719) 444-7000 or the Crime Stoppers Tip Line at (719) 634-STOP (7867) or 1-800-222-8477. Both of these numbers are anonymous.
