Former Neurosurgeon Shoots at Marshals | Denver News

A former neurosurgeon in Colorado, Steffens, is facing life in prison after allegedly opening fire on U.S. Marshals in March, wounding one officer critically. The marshals returned fire, hitting him multiple times before he was arrested and hospitalized. He’s now formally indicted on 11 federal charges including attempted murder of a federal officer and firing a weapon during a violent crime. Complicating matters, he still faces prior sexual assault charges, with the FBI and Florida sheriffs investigating. This shocking turn from healer to aggressor against law enforcement has the nation watching. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
