The father of the man accused of killing five people in a shooting at a gay nightclub in Colorado says he was relieved to find out that his son is not gay after learning of the attack.
Aaron Brink, father of shooting suspect Anderson Lee Aldrich, shared his response to Saturday’s deadly incident in an interview with CBS 8 San Diego.
“I was scared. I was like ‘Oh my God, s—-. Is he gay? And he’s not gay,” said Mr. Brink, 48.
Anderson Lee Aldrich, whose lawyers recently said is nonbinary, faces murder and hate crime charges in the Saturday night shooting at Club Q in Colorado Springs that left five people dead and 18 injured.
