Colorado Springs woman accused of shooting at husband

Colorado Springs police arrested a woman who they say took a shot at her husband before fleeing after an early Sunday morning fight.

Tracie Burkey and her husband were fighting around 2 a.m. on Sunday, when her husband left their house on Locust Drive and got into a car. He told police that, as he drove away, Burkey took a shot at him.

The man suffered minor injuries from broken glass, police said. Following an investigation, police obtained a warrant for Burkey’s arrest on suspicion of attempted first degree murder.

Burkey fled her home with her four-year-old daughter, but was found and arrested on Sunday evening. Her daughter was also found and was safe, police said.

El Paso County Sheriff’s deputy Lora Lowry is one of two deputies who have been assigned this month to be part of a pilot body-worn camera program.
