A Supermarket Mass Shooting Suspect Is Found Incompetent to Stand Trial
The suspect in a Colorado supermarket shooting that claimed 10 lives has been declared incompetent to stand trial by evaluators, court documents state.
But prosecutors in the case were granted a second hearing to evaluate Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa’s competency to be tried in the March 22 mass shooting.
Judge Ingrid Bakke granted the prosecution’s request for a second hearing this Thursday, according to court filings.
Alissa faces a total of 54 charges, including 10 counts of murder and one count of attempted murder, in the mass shooting at a King Soopers grocery in Boulder, CNN previously reported.
