‘He went over the edge’: Friends describe suspect in Boulder shooting

"Shootings never stopped during the pandemic: 2020 was the deadliest gun violence year in decades"

The man accused of coldly opening fire in a supermarket, killing 10 people, reacted very differently when arrested as his chilling past is revealed.

VIDEO - Police respond to active shooter at shopping centre in Colorado

A US man who is accused of carrying a Ruger AR-556 into a Colorado supermarket and allegedly opening fire has been described by those who knew him as short-tempered and capable of snapping at the smallest things.

Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa, 21, has been charged with 10 counts of first degree murder over the massacre at King Soopers in South Boulder on Monday.

[...]

Another teammate, Angel Hernandez, said Mr Alissa was paranoid about people looking at him.

“He was always talking about (how) people were looking at him and there was no one ever where he was pointing people out,” Mr Hernandez said. “We always thought he was messing around with us or something.”

On Mr Alissa’s Facebook page, which has since been removed, he repeatedly mentioned Islamophobia and criticised former president Donald Trump.

“Yeah if these racist Islamophobic people would stop hacking my phone and let me have a normal life I probably could,” he wrote in one 2019 post.

Mr Hernandez said that when he snapped, he was incapable of controlling his anger.

“You could tell there was a dark side in him. If he did get ticked off about something, within a split second, it was like if something takes over, like a demon. He’d just unleash all his anger.”
