Commerce City police arrested two men after responding to a tip that an Arizona fugitive wanted for homicide was at a home on near East 78th Avenue and Monaco.

Detective Mike Saunders, spokesman for the Commerce City Police Department, said when officers arrived at around 2 p.m. one of the men started running away.

During the chase, an officer fired his weapon. No one was hurt but an investigation has begun to determine why the officer fired the shot.

The officer’s name was not released.

Saunders said police are trying to confirm the identities of the two men, who are both in the late 20s or early 30s. It is not yet clear if one of the men is the fugitive the police were searching for.
