Twitter users are comparing the police treatment of Elijah McClain, who died after a 2019 confrontation with cops in Aurora, Colorado; with the arrest of the alleged mass shooter in Boulder, Colorado last night (March 22).
The mass shooting took the lives of 10 people at a Boulder grocery store and police say one suspect is currently in custody. Authorities have not revealed any details of the arrest nor identified the suspect, but a Reuters video showed one handcuffed man with a bloodied leg being taken away in an ambulance.
Boulder Police Department Commander Kerry Yamaguchi said he could not confirm the recorded man’s identity.
On social media, people remembered the fatal interaction between police and McClain, an unarmed Black man, and noted that the alleged Boulder and Atlanta massage parlor shooters were arrested without incident.
