(CNN) — Multiple people, including a Boulder police officer, have been killed at a supermarket in Boulder, Colorado, authorities said Monday. A person of interest was taken into custody, police Commander Kerry Yamaguchi said.
At this time, officials have confirmed 10 people were killed in the shooting.
Police in Boulder, Colorado, alerted that there was an “Active Shooter at the King Soopers on Table Mesa. AVOID THE AREA” on their Twitter page Monday afternoon.
One law enforcement officer was killed in the shooting at the King Soopers supermarket in Boulder, Colorado, two law enforcement sources told CNN.
One senior law enforcement source also said that the weapon used in the shooting was an AR-15-style rifle.
King Soopers is a supermarket brand of Kroger in the Rocky Mountain area of the United States.
Aerial video from the scene showed a massive police response and at least six ambulances.
Boulder Police confirmed that Officer Eric Talley died in the shooting.
Officer Talley leaves behind seven children, NBC affiliate KUSA reported. His oldest is 20-years-old and the youngest is 7-years-old.
Talley’s sister posted a Tweet explaining the heartbreak she and so many others feel after his passing.
“I cannot explain how beautiful he was and what a devastating loss this is to so many,” the Tweet read, in part. “Fly high my sweet brother. You always wanted to be a pilot.”
