At the first press briefing, Commander Kerry Yamaguchi with the Boulder Police Department could not release many details about the shooting at King Soopers grocery store in Boulder, Colorado this afternoon, saying they were still in the early stages of the investigation.
All he could say at this time was that there were multiple fatalities, including one Boulder police officer. Just four hours since the first call came in about the shooting, the police department was still notifying the victims’ families.
One person of interest is in custody, police said. That person was injured in the incident and is being treated for the injuries.
