Anthony is in the hospital recovering after he was injured in the Club Q shooting in Colorado Springs on Saturday night.

He and his husband Jeremy spoke about what happened, the impact on the LGBTQ+ community and where they go from here.

Five people were killed and another 17 shot at a LGBTQ+ nightclub in Colorado Springs, according to the Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPD).

During a news conference, CSPD Police Chief Adrian Vasquez said the suspect, 22-year-old Anderson Lee Aldrich, entered the nightclub and immediately started shooting. Two patrons of the nightclub fought with Aldrich and prevented him from injuring more people inside the club, according to Vasquez.

Police said multiple firearms were found at the scene and law enforcement was working to identify who the firearms belonged to. Police said Aldrich used a “long rifle” during the shooting but did not have any more specifics as to what firearms were used and where they were obtained.

The FBI said that it will “review all the available facts of the incident to determine what federal response is warranted. The FBI is providing assistance to the Colorado Springs Police Department.”
