Fatal Incident Summary
Offender: Harley McCoy
  
Location:   Denver, CO   USA   Thu. Jan. 15, 1891
Summary: On January 15, 1891, Captain Hawley was talking outside the Windsor Hotel with Denver Policeman Norris, when Harley McCoy and P. E. Robinson approached the officers. Hawley made an apparent disparaging comment about McCoy.

Robinson stopped and reached for a gun. Norris grappled with Robinson, who shot Norris once in the chest. McCoy then drew a gun and shot Hawley twice. Norris survived his wound, but Hawley died later in the hotel.

Disposition: convicted and sentenced to life in prison.
