Candlelight Vigil for 'Justice' After CO Elk Shot by Cop

Several hundred people turned out for a candlelight vigil in Boulder, Colorado Sunday night for a shooting victim in the area. Not in honor of a person, however, but in honor of an elk shot by an off-duty police officer.

Those honoring the animal sang and told stories, while also seeking “justice” for the animal they apparently named “Big Boy.”

ABC7 News has background on the story:

The elk had been spotted for several weeks on Mapleton Hill between 9th and 11th streets, and residents of the area gave conflicting reports as to whether it had behaved aggressively toward humans, the newspaper said.
Two Boulder police officers have been placed on paid administrative leave while the investigation into the shooting is conducted. Colorado Parks & Wildlife is also investigating the incident and took posession of the elk.
