Supermarket employees told investigators that Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa shot an elderly man multiple times Monday outside the Boulder grocery store before going inside, according to the documents. Another person was found shot in a vehicle next to a car registered to suspects brother.
A lawsuit challenging the bans was filed quickly, backed by the National Rifle Association. The judge struck down the ordinance under a Colorado law that blocks cities from making their own rules about guns.
One caller said the suspect opened fire out the window of his vehicle. He continued firing in the parking lot and then entered the store, as if in a state of insane rage.

It's not like the consequence of his ruling could be reasonably called "unforeseeable."

(33,251 posts)If the state passed a law that usurped/superseded any municipality's ability to regulate guns, he had to strike it down. The law says what it says even when it sucks.

(4,575 posts)by his house. It's right on their website. There's a King Soopers right across the street and an elementary school about about three blocks away and the high school he went to a few blocks east of that.
I'd like to see the NRA bankrupted and since this wasn't his first rodeo had they sold him guns previously? Did they notice anything off kilter about this guy? We have red flag laws here so the family dropped the ball on that one. But hell, he was driving his brothers car around with the rifle. Were they okay with that?
