Police say a suspected drunken driver shot and killed Colorado Springs Officer Kenneth Chua Jordan during a traffic stop late Monday night, marking the department's second fatal shooting in the line of duty this year.

Jordan, a 32-year-old Chicago native, served six years with the force and specialized in DUI cases.

Police returned fire and wounded the driver, 25-year-old Marco Reiner Lee of Colorado Springs. Both Jordan and Lee were transported to Memorial Hospital, where Jordan died about 12:18 a.m. Tuesday.

Lee is expected to survive.

Another has given his life in service of duty. Thoughts with his family and fellow officers of CSPD.

Suspect thinks world against him, kin says

Colorado Springs police shooting suspect Marco Lee.

By Dick Foster, Rocky Mountain News
December 6, 2006
COLORADO SPRINGS - Three traffic stops since March. A fascination with guns. And a building frustration over the "drama" in his life.

As 25-year-old Marco Reiner Lee lay in a bed at Memorial Hospital on Tuesday, investigators struggled to understand the motivation of the man accused of opening fire on police and killing Colorado Springs Officer Ken Jordan.

A family member told The(Colorado Springs) Gazette that Lee "thinks like the world is all against him" - and court records suggest he acted that way.

Lee, who mugged for his MySpace page dressed in camo and a bulletproof vest, had two encounters with police before Monday's fatal stop.

In March, a police officer stopped Lee for speeding, clocking him at an estimated 80 mph in a 55-mph zone on Interstate 25.

When the officer told Lee about his speed, Lee shouted, "You're f------ crazy. You're out of your f------ mind," according to a court affidavit.
