Colorado cops released the chilling mug shot Tuesday of accused supermarket madman Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa — capturing his dead stare the day after the shooting rampage that killed 10 people.
Alissa, a 21-year-old Syrian native, is being held on 10 counts of first-degree murder after allegedly strolling into a King Soopers grocery store in Boulder on Monday afternoon and unleashing a hail of bullets at workers, customers and cops.
The suspect surrendered at the scene after the carnage — with video and photos showing him half-naked and bleeding as he was hauled off in handcuffs.
He had stripped off half his clothes before being arrested — then asked to speak to his mommy, authorities said.
Alissa’s brother said he was mentally ill.
It also surfaced Tuesday that he once ranted on Facebook about “islamophobic people” — and re-posted someone else’s “Islamophobia” missive lamenting the attack on two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, in 2019 that left 51 people dead.
“The Muslims at the #christchurch mosque were not the victims of a single shooter,” the posting said. “They were the victims of the entire Islamophobia industry that vilified them.”
Court documents revealed that Alissa bought a gun a week before the shooting.
