Suspect in Colorado Amber Alert captured after allegedly shooting man, kidnapping child

Police in Colorado on Monday deactivated an Amber Alert for a missing boy out of Lakewood after the child was found unharmed and a woman was taken into custody.

The suspect, 26-year-old Crystal Denmon, allegedly shot a man in the morning before the reported kidnapping of the child and was considered "armed and dangerous" when the alert went out in the early afternoon.

Denmon was spotted in the town of Cheraw in southeastern Colorado with a 7-year-old sometime after the reported shooting. Cheraw is in Otero County, about 190 miles southeast of Denver.  

She was taken into custody in the mid-afternoon and, according to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation, the child was safely located just before 4 p.m.

Lakewood police say Denmon shot a man around 6 a.m. in an apartment in the 1700 block of Kendall Street Monday morning. He was taken to the hospital and, as officers investigated the shooting, they noticed the suspect was gone and the man's child was missing, the department said.

Denmon is not the child's mother, but it's unclear what the relationship between them is. The condition of the man was not immediately clear as of about 3 p.m.
