Cabell County native 40 year old Sean Chandler, who formerly served four years as a deputy in the Cabell County Sheriff's Office, while being from Milton, West Virginia, was among the two officers shot in the line of duty during a shootout Thursday in suburban Denver which left two bank robbery suspects dead. Serving as a Westminster, Colorado police officer, Chandler was one of the officers attempting to pull over bank robbery suspects, one male and one female, when the suspects fired at the officers during a chase in which the suspects' car spun out. A shootout began, and the male suspect was killed, while the female died after being transported to a local hospital. Six police cars at the scene were riddled with gunfire.
