Denver police say a gunman shot a woman before apparently killing himself at a downtown office building on Tuesday afternoon.

Police spokesman Doug Schepman said officers quickly entered the building where they found the gunman dead, apparently from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. They also found a woman who had suffered several gunshot wounds. She was transported in critical condition, Schepman said.

One eyewitness said she heard from co-workers that two people had been shot and the "shooter was down." People quickly fled the building.

Officers blocked off multiple roads in the area.
