Bristol, Connecticut Police Station Shooting

On October 5, 2023 at approximately 2330 hours, a female, later identified as 51-year-old Suzanne Laprise, entered the lobby of the Bristol Police Station. She approached the front lobby counter windows and banged on the windows with a handgun. The front counter was unoccupied at that time. After banging on the windows, she fired multiple rounds into the windows. The rounds did not penetrate the bullet-resistant glass.

Officers attempted to open a dialogue with Laprise. During these efforts, Laprise discharged additional rounds in the direction of the officers. One officer returned fire, firing two shots. The bullet-resistant glass stopped all rounds and no one was hit. When the suspect set the handgun down, officers entered the lobby, one officer deployed his taser, and took her into custody. The suspect was taken to an area hospital for evaluation. She was later released to the authorities.
