A man named Brandon Olsen, 44, shot his way into the Colorado Supreme Court building after being involved in a car wreck nearby. He caused extensive damage to the building and set a fire before surrendering to police. The incident, which occurred early Tuesday, is not believed to be related to recent threats against the court following a ruling on former President Trump's eligibility for office. No injuries were reported, and Olsen is scheduled for a court appearance. Increased security measures have been in place for the justices since the controversial ruling.
