TL;DR Summary

A judge has ruled that Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa, the man accused of killing 10 people in a shooting rampage at a Colorado supermarket in 2021, is mentally competent to stand trial. The ruling comes after experts at a state mental hospital determined that Alissa was competent, despite previous evaluations suggesting otherwise. Alissa, who has schizophrenia, has been charged with murder and multiple attempted murder counts. The judge noted that Alissa's mental condition improved after being forced to take medication. A hearing will be held on November 14 to determine if there is enough evidence for the case to proceed to trial.
