Grieving residents of Buffalo hold vigils after a white gunman whom US officials have branded 'pure evil' shot dead 10 people – almost all of them Black – in a 'racist' rampage
Mourners in Buffalo describe shooting at grocery market by a white gunman as a"military-style execution" and say racist messaging is"spreading like wildfire," especially online.
The police commissioner for the US city in western New York, Joseph Gramaglia, told reporters on Sunday the 18-year-old suspect did "reconnaissance" on the predominantly Black area surrounding Tops Friendly Market and drove there from his home town of Conklin, more than 322 kilometres away. "The evidence that we have uncovered so far makes no mistake that this is an absolute racist hate crime," Gramaglia said on Sunday, adding Gendron had a rifle and shotgun in his car.
Earlier on Sunday residents held a vigil outside the store, as New York Governor Kathy Hochul and state Attorney General Letitia James addressed a church service. Just hours later in California, a shooting at a church southeast of Los Angeles left one person dead and four others "critically wounded," according to the Orange County Sheriff's Department.
