Gary Dolce, 63, was shot and killed near his Colorado Springs home on March 27, 2019, after a long-running dispute with his next-door neighbor, James W. Hanlon. Police had been called to an altercation between the men more than a month before the fatal shooting, and an hour before the killing Hanlon was cited for having an aggressive animal connected to the fence separating their properties.

Dolce recorded the attack on his cellphone; the video shows a blue SUV, a driver wearing a disposable glove pointing a handgun at Dolce, and the sound of multiple gunshots as he fell to the ground yelling. Authorities issued an active first-degree murder warrant for 53-year-old Hanlon, who removed and discarded the gun and was on the run for two days before turning himself in to Denver police and being taken into custody by Colorado Springs police.

An El Paso County jury later convicted Hanlon of first-degree murder and aggravated witness intimidation, and a judge sentenced him to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Does anyone have information about the dispute between Dolce and his neighbor or the events on March 27, 2019?
