Denver's mayor said between 700,000 and 1 million people attended the parade.
A fire engine hit a Denver police officer Thursday morning at the end of the parade route. Officials said the officer was doing crowd control when the fire engine, which had players on board, turned a corner and struck him. Many of them witnessed a shooting, which officials said happened in the area but was unrelated to the celebratory event.
"Shame on them for marring what had been otherwise a successful event for the entire state of Colorado," said Denver Mayor Michael Hancock. Two people were injured in the shooting and taken to the same hospital where the officer was being treated. The suspect has not been caught, but authorities say they have leads because there were cameras in the area.
