DEADLY DOUGHERTY GANG CAPTURED IN COLORADO

DEADLY?
STRIPPER
UPDATE: They got 'em. The Dougherty Gang who had a brief but violent run on the Most Wanted List have been captured in Colorado following a shootout. The trio-- Ryan Edward Dougherty, 21, Dylan Dougherty Stanley, 26, and 29-year-old Lee Grace Dougherty were taken into custody after a high-speed chase that ended in a crash Wednesday. Cops in Pueblo say they were spotted trying to buy AK-47 ammo at a Walmart. The gutsy clerk made an excuse why he couldn't sell any and called the cops. A high-speed chase began at 9:36 a.m. and ended 20 miles later. The trio fired at cops. When they crashed their car, Lee Grace came out shooting and was shot in the leg for her troubles.

EARLIER: A STRIPPER and her two heavily armed brothers known as the Deadly Dougherty Gang may have been spotted in Colorado, the FBI have revealed.
Lee Grace Dougherty and her brothers Ryan, 21, and Dylan Dougherty Stanley, 26, went a crime rampage last week, shooting up a police car and then robbing a bank.
It's believed Ryan, the youngest member of the gang, with an astonishing 14 felonies on his record is leading their trail of destruction.
The manhunt for them started the same day that he had allegedly cut off his court-ordered ankle monitoring device having  been forced to register as a sex offender for sending explicit text messages to an 11-year-old girl. 
The three were last seen driving a white 4-door Subaru Impreza with Texas license plates LCS 909, which have been reported stolen out of Texas, Colorado Springs police said.
Officials with the FBI's Denver office told ABC News that this new Colorado sighting is credible, based on multiple interviews with witnesses.
FBI spokesman Dave Joly told the Denver Post: "This appears to be the real deal. We believe they pose a very imminent threat to the community we serve and to law enforcement."
He added that they do not know what direction the suspects might be going.
They are urging the public to keep an eye out in rural areas and in campgrounds where the siblings may be staying or hiding out.
However they are urging people not to approach them as they are packing a powerful arsenal and they are clearly not afraid to use it.
