Boulder mass shooting victims remembered, including police officer, future grandpa

Among the victims were a 25-year-old grocery store worker who was raised by her grandparents to be strong and independent and a 61-year-old man who will never be able to see or hold his expectant grandchild.

The names of the nine civilians and one police officer killed in Monday's mass shooting at the King Soopers store in Boulder, Colorado, were released on Tuesday, just hours after the last body was removed from the supermarket.

"I don't know all the details at this time. I've spoken to some of their families, and I can just tell you that they're heartbroken and this is the worst call you could ever receive as a family member," Boulder Police Chief Maris Herold said at a news conference.

Among those fatally shot was Officer Eric Talley, 51, a father of seven, who was the first officer to respond to the store when 911 calls about the shooting came in. Herold said Talley was shot when he rushed into the store to save lives and engaged the suspect in a gunfight.
