If he was a Muslim, you know the President would be freaking out demanding martial law, but it is just an older, racist failed businessman with a bankruptcy under his belt.

A 47-year-old man accused of fatally shooting three people Wednesday night at a Thornton Walmart had long been under financial strain after running two failed businesses, running up $58,000 in credit card debt and declaring bankruptcy, state and federal records show.

Neighbors at the apartment complex on the 7100 block of Samuel Drive in Denver described Scott Ostrem as “creepy” and unfriendly.

“He made me nervous because he always had rifle in a case over his shoulder,” said Teresa Muniz, who lives in the same apartment complex as the suspect.

She said her dog never bothers anyone but would growl whenever Ostrem walked nearby.

Walmart Shooting Suspect Scott Ostrem Could Face Death Penalty


While police released little information about Ostrem, neighbors at the Samuel Park Apartments described him as a loner who would walk around carrying weapons.

"He didn't seem to have anybody," Teresa Muniz, one of his neighbors, told The Associated Press. "Being angry all the time. That's what he seemed like, always angry."

Muniz said most of the building's tenants talk to one another, but Ostrem never returned her greetings and swore at people for leaving laundry in communal machines. She also said she sometimes saw Ostrem carrying a shotgun or a bow and set of arrows to and from the building.

Another resident, Dennis Valenzuela, told NBC affiliate KUSA that he noticed Ostrem treated tenants differently because of their race. Thornton is about one-third Hispanic or Latino.

1. Not buying the failed business/bankruptcy story

Look how many times it's happened to Trump and he hasn't shot anyone yet

2. That we know of

Money can hide a multitude of sins.
