“He just came in and started shooting”: What Boulder King Soopers shoppers saw inside the store as mayhem unfolded. Gunman was silent, witnesses say, and police offered no hint of motive


The photo of the bearded white man wearing nothing but briefs as he was led away in handcuffs with a bloody leg did not appear to me to be that of a 21 yo. I guess we shall see.

Update: I guess it is the same guy. His brother has confirmed and here are photos:

I wonder if they got the age wrong, because the injured guy they were taking away looked like an overweight, balding middle-aged man.
