Aisha Yvonne Quest, 32, was killed during an active shooter incident on a September morning in 2024 at the Arista Flats apartments in Broomfield, Colorado. Police responded to a disturbance at the complex that escalated when 34-year-old Gregory Ryan Miles reportedly began firing into nearby units and the parking lot. Authorities say Quest was inside the same unit and was described as a hostage during the standoff.

Officers spent hours attempting to de-escalate before making a forcible entry shortly before 10 a.m. An exchange of gunfire followed; Miles was shot, taken into custody and hospitalized, and Quest was shot and later died at a hospital. Miles faces multiple charges including first-degree murder. Investigators identified prior domestic violence allegations in Miles’ background, and Quest’s family believes they were in a relationship, though officials did not define it.
