Robert Dear, 67, the suspect in the 2015 Colorado Springs Planned Parenthood attack, died of natural causes while in federal custody at the U.S. Medical Center for Federal Prisoners in Springfield, Missouri, the Bureau of Prisons told the Associated Press. According to the Department of Justice’s 2019 indictment, Dear arrived armed with multiple rifles and handguns, roughly 500 rounds of ammunition and propane tanks, sparking a five‑hour standoff that left Ke’Arre Stewart, Jennifer Markovsky and Officer Garrett Swasey dead and nine others injured, and 4th Judicial District Attorney Michael J. Allen said victims and the community were "denied" full justice by his death.
