A clearer picture is emerging, Wednesday, of the man who killed 10 people in a mass shooting at a grocery store in Boulder, Colorado, on Monday, with authorities now saying the man was “known” to federal agents, and with acquaintances and family members telling law enforcement that he suffered from bouts of mental illness that included paranoia and outbursts of rage.

The 21-year-old alleged shooter, whose name has been withheld per Daily Wire policy, was taken alive after opening fire in a Boulder-area King Soopers grocery store and has already been charged with 10 counts of first-degree murder.
