Rikki Olds, a 25-year-old King Soopers employee, was among the 10 people killed in the Boulder grocery store on Monday, her aunt confirmed to The Denver Post.

Lori Olds said in a message to a Post reporter that she was notified around 3 a.m. Tuesday, more than 12 hours after the shooting, that her niece was dead.

“Thank you everyone for all your prayers but the Lord got a beautiful young angel yesterday at the hands of a deranged monster,” Lori Olds wrote in a public post on her Facebook page Tuesday morning.

Olds said her niece worked as a front-end manager at King Soopers at 3600 Table Mesa Drive in Boulder.

A man walked into the store Monday afternoon and began shooting, killing 10 people. Among those also killed was Boulder police Officer Eric Talley, who died after responding to the shooting.

The suspect is facing 10 counts of first-degree murder.

Rikki Olds was a King Soopers employee at least since February 2016, when she began working as a deli clerk at one of the supermarket’s stores in Louisville. At the time, she also joined the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union, Local 7, which she was a member of until December 2018, said Kyle Welsh, retail director for the union.

He said Olds also worked for a period at a King Soopers in Arvada before returning to the Louisville store. She eventually became an assistant deli manager, and then, a deli manager for the supermarket, he said.

She was not part of the union during her time at the Boulder store.

Rikki Olds’ Facebook identifies her as a Lafayette resident who attended Centaurus High School and Front Range Community College.
