"Ten killed in mass shooting at Jefferson Avenue supermarket; officials describe attack as 'hate crime'
The gunman is 18 years old. Authorities have not identified him, but he was set to be arraigned Saturday evening.
As he moved through the store, he was dressed in body armor and armed with a high-powered rifle, police sources said.
Police and prosecutors said they suspect the shooting had a racial motive.'It was', Erie County Sheriff John Garcia said, 'straight up, a racially motivated hate crime.'"
----------------------------------------------
This mass murder reminded me of another: the 2021 killings of 10 people in a King Soopers supermarket in a Jewish neighborhood in Boulder, CO. That terrorist was Syrian, he was also heavily armed, and he too traveled from miles away just to attack this particular store. The killer was found "incompetent" to stand trial, even though he was competent enough to plan the attack and slaughter innocent people!
