Syrian born Ahmad Al Issa went on a shooting rampage outside King Soopers supermarket in Boulder, Colorado.
Ahmad Al Issa, who went on a rampage shooting people at the King Soopers supermarket in Boulder, Colorado, was laughing and chuckling while spraying bullets at innocent victims, reveal cops and eyewitness.
The Syrian born killer carried out the brutal massacre using an AR-556 rifle and wore a vest and a body armor to protect himself by being shot at by the police but eventually removed it along with his clothes and remained only in black shorts.
Eyewitnesses spoke out about their harrowing experience to the Denver Post and a woman named Angelina Romero-Chavez said she survived the massacre by barricading herself inside a storage closet along with her boyfriend, Amos Plentywolf, who is also her co-worker, and helped another couple to join them in safety.
Recounting the horror, she said when the shots were fired, she could hear the shooter laughing and chuckling hysterically. ”We could hear a man chuckling,” the 23-year-old survivor recalled and continued as and when ”gunshots were close, we believe it was him chuckling.”
She said she and her boyfriend, Plentywolf, along with another couple survived only because she blocked the door with the store supplies and wires that kept them out of sight from the killer.
