Man Shot, Killed in Colorado Capitol

DENVER (AP) - A man carrying a gun and declaring "I am the emperor" was shot and killed Monday outside the offices of Gov. Bill Ritter by a state patrolman, a spokesman said. Ritter was in his office but was not injured.

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.

I think someone misunderstood his actual words. Some witnesses thought he said, "I am The Great Cornholio. I need TP for my Bunghole."
"Every day I get up and look through the Forbes list of the richest people in America. If I'm not there, I go to work."
