On the 22nd, a 21-year-old man, Ahmad Alisa, who killed 10 people by shooting a gun at a grocery store in Boulder, Colorado, came out with family testimony that he had antisocial tendencies.
On the 23rd (local time), according to the American internet media Daily Beast, Alisa’s elder brother, Ali Aliwi, Alisa (34) said, “My younger brother is very antisocial and is paranoid.” I came,” he said.
Reuters reported that Alisa was a Syrian American citizen and was active as a wrestler in high school.
The social network service (SNS) page, which is presumed to be Alisa’s account, had a picture of Alisa who participated in a wrestling match, and stated that she was interested in computer science and kickboxing.
Also, according to this page, Alisa studied computer science at Denver Metropolitan State University (MSUD). However, MSUD officials said that Alisa was not a student at the school.
In a statement submitted by local police, Alisa raided the grocery store King Superus in Boulder on the 22nd, armed with an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle and pistol, and wearing a tactical vest.
It was also revealed that Alisa purchased the Ruger AR-556 rifle on the 16th, six days before the shooting.
After confrontation with the police in a firefight with the police at the scene of the incident, Alyssa suffered a leg injury and was treated in a hospital before being transferred to Boulder County Prison.
He will soon be in court on charges of first-degree murder.
According to the affidavit, Alisa has no specific criminal record except for being accused of third-degree assault in 2018.
Local police have yet to reveal Alisa’s motives, but said they are confident that Alisa is the sole criminal.
FBI agent Michael Schneider, who was in charge of the case, stressed at a press conference that Alisa’s motives were “too soon to come to any conclusions.”
