A masked white man carrying at least one weapon bearing a swastika fatally shot three Black people inside a Florida store Saturday in an attack with a clear motive of racial hatred, officials said.
The shooting devastated an historically Black neighbourhood in Jacksonville Saturday as thousands visited Washington, D.C., to attend the Rev. Al Sharpton's 60th anniversary commemoration of the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, where the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his historic"I Have A Dream" speech.
The choir sang"Amazing Grace" before ministers said prayers for the victims' families and the broader community. From the pews, congregants with heads bowed answered with"amen." Law enforcement officers investigate the scene of a mass shooting at a Dollar General store, Aug. 26, 2023, in Jacksonville, Fla.
Officials did not immediately release the names of the victims or the gunman on Saturday. Local media identified a man believed to be the shooter but his identity was not independently confirmed by The Associated Press by early Sunday. "This guy killed himself rather than face the music and accept responsibility for his actions. He took the coward's way out," DeSantis said.
