BOULDER, Colo. More than a month has passed since the mass shooting at the King Soopers on Table Mesa in Boulder. For the first time, employees who were at the store that day when 10 people died share what they saw to 9NEWS.
Several of the victims were employees themselves. It definitely doesn t feel like over a month, said Logan Smith, a barista at the Starbucks inside the Boulder King Soopers. Every single day has felt like just one day.
Smith was working at the Starbucks when he heard the gunfire. He visits the store several times a week to pay his respects at the memorial. On the day of the shooting he was not sure he was going to walk out of the King Soopers alive.
In the Japanese tradition of senbazuru, it is said that if you fold 1,000 origami cranes, your wish will be granted. The idea found its way around the world with the story of Sadako Sasaki, a young girl who inspired others with her endeavor to fold enough cranes to cure her cancer, after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. Since then, the paper crane has become an international symbol of healing, hope and peace. Last week, local artists came to the Museum of Boulder to help with a similar effort the Memorial Crane Project.
