FORT COLLINS, Colo.—Police in Fort Collins say officers have shot and wounded a man matching the description of a suspected kidnapper whose victim was found safe earlier in the day in southern Wyoming.
The Fort Collins Police Department says three officers were involved in the shooting at about 4 p.m. and that none of them was injured. The wounded man was taken to Poudre Valley Hospital.
Laramie, Wyo., Police Commander Mitchell Cushman says he got word from the FBI that the wounded man was 50-year-old Dennis Gene Cox. An FBI spokeswoman says she cannot confirm the identification.
Laramie police began searching for Cox on Friday after the woman he was accused of kidnapping from Brighton, Colo., earlier this week was found safe at a Laramie hotel.
