WASHINGTON, March 23 — Ten people, including a police officer who was the first to respond to the scene, were killed in the Monday shooting at a grocery store in Boulder, Colorado, Sputnik quoted local police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We now have ten fatalities at the scene, including one of our Boulder PD officers by the name of Eric Talley, who has been on the Boulder Police Department since 2010,” BoulderPolice Chief Maris Herold told reporters on Monday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She expressed heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims of the “horrific incident” at King Soopers grocery store and praised the “heroic action” of Eric Talley, 51.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boulder County District Attorney Michael Dougherty confirmed that the shooter was in custody and said he was “incredibly sorry” for the victims, promising to “secure justice.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“His life was cut far too short,” Dougherty said referring to the killed police officer Eric Talley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
