Breaking: Active shooter at the King Soopers supermarket in Boulder, CO. Multiple down.
Extremely disturbing live YouTube video (not from shooter) shows multiple shots fired, at least 3 people on the ground shot.
Not posting the video to give away positions of the officers. Pretty irresponsible of the photojournalist to be doing this.
There is an officer injured. Not sure if shot or otherwise injured.
This is the 102nd mass shooting in the US in 2021. gunviolencearchive.org
Suspect is captured.
Suspect is a middle-aged white male. Alive and in custody.
Medics are now treating "at least 4" victims.
Oh, man. Police scanner says 6 are dead.
Scanner traffic should always be considered unconfirmed.
Additional victims being found. So incredibly tragic and the numbers are going to be awful.
New situation developing:

Police holding a briefing on the shooting at the supermarket now. One Boulder police officer was killed, multiple civilians dead. The shooter was injured and is in custody.
Police won’t say how many were killed, but the only injury is the gunman.
Remarkable how little the police are sharing.
They won’t describe the suspect, they won’t say how many people were killed, they won’t say anything about the weapon or what the suspect was wearing.
The Commander actually said they don’t know how many died. Really bizarre press conference.
The Commander said they don't know how many died and then the DA stepped in and said the police know but can't release it.
Looks like the Chief is going to clear things up momentarily

Police: 10 dead, including police officer.
Officer Talley was 51. He was the first one on the scene and ran into the supermarket trying to stop the suspect.
The aforementioned YouTube video shows an officer (unclear if Talley) running to the scene. "Where? Where?" the officer shouted to witnesses. After someone says "Inside, back of the store is where I last saw him" the officer moves inside and 20 seconds later gunshots are heard.
