DENVER, COLORADO - OCTOBER 10: Lee Keltner, 49, deploys pepper spray at Matthew Dolloff, 30, right, who shoots Keltner almost simultaneously during a confrontation in Downtown Denver on October 10, 2020 in Denver, Colorado. Milliseconds later Keltner lies fatally wounded on the ground from the shooting by Dolloff. The shell casing from the bullet can be seen exiting the gun. The shooting happened at 3:37 p.m. local time near the courtyard of the Denver Art Museum as protests from dueling rallies were winding down, officials said. The shooting incident occurred after Keltner, who had been participating in what was billed as a “Patriot Rally”, got into an altercation with Dolloff and another man who was later identified as a 9News producer. Two opposing rallies between far-right and far-left activists had taken place earlier in the day at Civic Center Park. Dolloff has been charged with second-degree murder and is currently out of jail on a $500,000 bond. (Photo by Helen H. Richardson/The Denver Post)
