The hospital has been placed on lock down to ensure safety to patients and visitors.

An anonymous witness told the Denver Post a feud had broken out between rival biker gangs.

The 38th annual Colorado Motorcycle Expo is being held at the Coliseum over the weekend.

The newspaper reported police filled the parking lot and people who left the show and crossed the police tape were not allowed to return to the building.

It said the exhibition was permitted to remain open and people were not asked to leave.
