Dancing FBI Agent May Have Been Drinking: Denver Cops

DENVER, CO – The Denver police on Monday said they continue to investigate an incident where a gun was accidentally discharged by dancing off-duty FBI agent in a Denver nightclub.

9News identified the agent as Washington-DC-based Chase Bishop, 29.

A video went viral this weekend of Bishop showing off fancy dance moves, ending in a back flip and then accidentally firing a pistol that fell from his back belt. A patron was shot in the leg.

Police declined to identify the agent Monday. They asked any witnesses to come forward who haven't already spoken to investigators, and asked for help from anyone else who had video of the event that happened at 12:45 a.m. Saturday at Mile High Spirits, 2201 Lawrence Street.

Police said they are waiting for lab results "to determine if alcohol was a factor."

The FBI's Denver spokeswoman Amy Sanders did not immediately return calls and emails for comment from Patch.

Mile High Sprits released a statement about the incident, saying the patron who was shot is welcome to "free drinks forever:"
