Three people were killed Monday and one person is in critical condition after a shooting in rural Custer County north of Westcliffe after a suspected “property dispute,” according to the Custer County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies are searching for a man, Hanme K. Clark, in connection to the shooting; a shelter-in-place order was issued while they searched the area after the shooting, the sheriff’s office said in a Facebook post.

Just before 1 p.m. Monday, deputies responded to a shots fired report on Rocky Ridge Road about eight miles northeast of Westcliffe.

The shooting happened at 173 Rocky Ridge Road on the property line in a wooded area, the sheriff’s office said. Two men and two women were shot. Both men and one of the women died, and the other woman is in critical condition at a hospital but is expected to survive.

Deputies and the Fremont County SWAT team searched the area, but the sheriff’s office lifted the shelter in place about 8 p.m.

Clark was last seen driving a white Ram 1500.

Anyone with information can call 911.
