Officials say the suspect, 18-year-old Payton Gendron, wore body armor and live-streamed the massacre
A white gunman livestreamed a racially motivated mass shooting online, showing himself killing 10 people and wounding three others Saturday at a Buffalo, N.Y., supermarket in a historically Black neighborhood.According to witnesses and law enforcement, the gunman was dressed in body armor and armed with a high-powered rifle as he livestreamed the massacre. Investigators were reviewing a hate-filled manifesto the suspect apparently posted online.
Payton Gendron, 18, of Conklin, N.Y., was arraigned on first-degree murder charges in Buffalo City Court and detained without bail. At a news conference, Erie County Dist. Atty. John Flynn said a felony hearing would take place in five days. He said his office was considering terrorism charges, as well as “other murder charges,” and was working with the federal government “so that they can perhaps file charges as well.”
He then went inside the store, where a security guard who was a former Buffalo police officer confronted him. In one segment of the video, the shooter is heard saying to himself and his followers, “You just got to go for it,” as his car approached the Tops Friendly Market on Saturday afternoon.
