COLORADO SPRINGS, CO – The Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs has reopened nearly three months after a gunman killed three people and injured nine.
Police and security guards were on-hand as the clinic re-opened on Monday. Only part of the building is in use because repairs are still under way. Rocky Mountain Planned Parenthood CEO Vicki Cowart says construction crews had to get a little creative. The exterior is scarred from bullets, and the main entrance is sheathed in plywood. The entrance was damaged by a police armored vehicle during the response to the November shooting.
Robert Dear has been charged with murder, attempted murder and other counts. He’s awaiting a competency evaluation.
