A witness who was at the deli when the shooting sparked, noted that they heard someone chuckling as the gunshots were close during that time. Police also transmitted a message over their radio saying that the suspect is laughing at them, according to a report from The Denver Post. 

Aside from the 10 counts of murder, Alissa is facing, Boulder County District Attorney Michael Dougherty pointed out that they plan to file more charges against the suspect in the coming weeks.

"Our position is we cannot do anything," said public defender Kathryn Herold adding that they can only act once they have already fully assessed the mental health of Alissa. Herold is the attorney holding the case of Alissa. Herold also requested a mental health review of the suspect.

During the gunfire, the authorities have claimed that Alissa was injured and was hospitalized. Alissa is now in stable condition.

 

Meanwhile, Boulder Police Department addressed the concerns of people online regarding their response time. The Department noted that Officer King Talley, one of the victims in the recent Colorado shooting led a contact team of officers into the grocery store in 20 seconds. The suspect shot the officers leading to Officer Talley's demise.

The suspect is armed with a rugged AR556 pistol which was believed by the authorities that the suspect has acquired six days before the shooting. The gun was identified to be from Eagles Nest Armory in the Denver suburb of Arvada. The said location was also identified to be the residence of the suspect. Apart from the rifle-like gun, authorities have also reported that the suspect has a handgun, but it was believed that it was not used in the shooting.

Colorado shooting victims

Apart from the workers of the grocery and the police officer who were killed, victims also include a veteran and resident of the area where the grocery store is located.

Mourners were also reported to offer flowers on the temporary chain link fence that is now surrounding the King Soopers grocery store. Community members also gathered to offer vigil and remembrances. Candles were also lit by the mourners as they sing while hugging each other. President Joe Biden also extended his condolences to the families of the victims.

Meanwhile, authorities have not yet figured out the motive behind the Colorado shooting that targeted the grocery store. "Like the rest of the community, we too want to know why," said Chief Marris Herold at a news conference. Herold added that it will be haunting for all of them until the motives were figured out.
