The Colorado State Patrol confirmed on Twitter there was a short pursuit of the three fugitives this morning that ended in a car crash.
Charlene Graham, bureau chief for law enforcement with the Pueblo County Sheriff's Office, said the siblings took officers on a 100-mph chase on the highway. The siblings crashed around mile marker 52 or 53.
Graham said the female sibling was shot.
The three have been on the run since Aug. 2, when they shot at a police officer who tried to pull them over in central Florida.
Five hours later, they allegedly robbed a bank in Valdosta, Ga. One of them fired an AK-47 rifle into the ceiling as they entered the front door. Another of the trio also was armed with some type of machine gun, while the third collected the cash.
They fled in a 2006 Subaru Impreza sedan, which officials now believe was the same car spotted in Colorado Springs about 1:30 p.m. Tuesday.
The Gazette reported that FBI agents interviewed employees of REI near Woodmen Boulevard and Interstate 25 after it is believed the trio quickly purchased a tent and left the store, according to a store employee.
It does not appear any of the store's employees spoke with the fugitives while they shopped.
A customer in the REI parking lot called police around 1 p.m. to report the possible sighting of the three fugitives and Colorado Springs police issued alerts to officers to be on the lookout for the white Subaru Impreza.
Cañon City police this morning were investigating reports that the "Dougherty Gang" appeared in a Wal-Mart on Tuesday night.
Capt. Allen Cooper said officers received a call from a Wal-Mart employee this morning telling them that the siblings might have been in the store near U.S. Highway 50 about 9 p.m. Tuesday.
Allen said officers are trying to obtain video surveillance footage from the store.
FBI Denver spokesman Dave Joly said Tuesday that officials a received "very credible" report that the three siblings had been seen in Colorado Springs.
When their flight began, Ryan Dougherty​ was accused of sending hundreds of explicit text messages to an 11-year-old girl he met on MySpace. He has 14 previous felonies on his record.
His sister, who had recently worked as a stripper at a Cocoa Beach, Fla., club called Cheaters, has been arrested five times on hit-and-run charges, and also has a number of misdemeanor arrests and convictions.

Stanley has previously been arrested on misdemeanor marijuana-possession charges.
