A mass shooting at the King Soopers supermarket on Table Mesa Drive in the south of Boulder, Colorado, on March 22, 2021, resulted in the death of ten people.
The gunman, 21-year-old Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa of Arvada, Colorado, was armed with a Ruger semi-automatic pistol and a 9 mm handgun, and fired at people in the supermarket’s parking lot before continuing to shoot inside the store.
The ten fatalities included five shoppers, three King Soopers employees, a repairman on site, and Boulder police officer Eric Talley who was one of the first to respond to the incident. Alissa was shot in the leg by police and taken into custody before being charged with ten counts of first-degree murder.
