Accused Boulder mass murderer Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa stripped off his clothes before he was arrested — and then asked to speak to his mom as he surrendered to authorities, according to new court documents.
Details of the moments following the Monday afternoon slaughter at the King Soopers grocery store — which left 10 people dead — emerged in a new affidavit released Tuesday.
After SWAT members burst into the supermarket, they found Boulder police officer Eric Talley’s slain body — with a bullet wound to the head.
A short time later, a bloodied Alissa — who was shot through his upper right thigh — surrendered to authorities.
“Alissa had removed all of his clothing and was dressed only in shorts,” the affidavit says.
A green tactical vest, rifle, semiautomatic handgun, pair of jeans and a long-sleeved T-shirt were later found at the scene.
Aerial footage at the time captured the dramatic scene — a handcuffed Alissa half-naked and soaked in blood as he’s being hauled away by officers.
A sergeant asked Alissa, 21, if there were any other suspects.
“The suspect did not answer questions, though he asked to speak to his mother,” the document says.
Police said there was no indication that Alissa was drunk or high on drugs, according to the affidavit. The alleged shooter told paramedics that “he was not using any medications.”
“There was much blood around the items,” the affidavit says.
