When in the past weve seen people of color shot for less!
Payton S. Gendron of Conklin, New York, has been charged with first-degree murder, Erie County District Attorney John Flynn said in a Saturday news release. He has pleaded not guilty, and more charges are expected.
His defense attorney told CNN on Tuesday he would not issue a statement now.
Here’s what we know about the suspect.
He planned to ‘continue his rampage,’ police say
When the suspect arrived at the store around 2:30 p.m., he was heavily armed, wearing tactical gear — including a tactical helmet along with plated armor, Buffalo Police Commissioner Joseph Gramaglia said — and had a camera that was livestreaming his actions.
He used an assault weapon, Flynn said during a news conference.
