The FBI confirmed Wednesday that the suspect accused of opening fire at a Colorado gay bar last month and killing five people was put on the bureau’s radar when he was arrested for threatening to kill his family.
In response to questions from The Epoch Times, the FBI said that 22-year-old Anderson Lee Aldrich, the mass shooting suspect who in court papers last month identified as “nonbinary” and uses “they/them pronouns,” became known to the bureau a day before he threatened to kill members of his family during a police standoff on June 18, 2021. The FBI closed the case several weeks later without explanation, the bureau confirmed Wednesday.
