Henry Corral, the suspect in a deadly shooting in Alamosa, Colorado, has been captured after an exhaustive manhunt that involved federal, state, and local authorities. The intense search, which spanned a vast area of southern Colorado, ended Sunday when officers apprehended Corral following a 'lengthy foot pursuit,' according to Alamosa Police Chief George Dingfelder.

Corral allegedly left one person dead and two critically injured after opening fire at The Sunset Inn around 2 am. Officers initially responded to reports of shots fired and discovered the grim scene. Following the shooting, Corral fled in a vehicle, which he later crashed, and then made a failed attempt to carjack another vehicle before fleeing on foot into farmland.

Authorities issued an arrest warrant late Sunday, charging Corral with first-degree murder, attempted murder, tampering with evidence, aggravated robbery, and possession of a weapon by a previous offender. Corral has a known criminal history, including convictions for reckless manslaughter and felony assault. The search effort involved a large force that included aircraft and door-to-door searches.
