The mass shooting in Boulder, Colorado on Monday took the lives of 10 people, including Boulder Police Officer Eric Talley. In a small but powerful gesture, officers officially placed the suspect into custody using Officer Talley’s handcuffs.
It was our distinct honor to use Officer Talley’s handcuffs to formally process him into the jail. Though this was a small gesture, we hope it is the start of the healing process that so many of us need at this time.

The suspect faces 10 counts of first-degree murder, as well as an additional count of attempted murder of an officer.
When police entered the store where the shooting was taking place, they came under fire almost immediately.
DA: Police charged into the store immediately and faced "a significant amount of gunfire;" they absolutely saved lives and put their own lives at risk.
