The revelations align with a 180-page racist diatribe authorities have attributed to the suspect, an 18-year-old White man who traveled nearly 200 miles to a supermarket that served as the hub of a predominantly Black neighborhood to unleash an attack.
The man accused of killing 10 people in a racist mass shooting Saturday at a Buffalo, New York, supermarket had plans to continue his shooting rampage and kill more Black people, authorities said Monday.
"There was evidence that was uncovered that he had plans, had he gotten out of here, to continue his rampage and continue shooting people," Buffalo Police Commissioner Joseph Gramaglia siad''"He'd even spoken about possibly going to another store."
It "appears" the suspect planned to kill more Black people, Erie County District Attorney John Flynn said, adding, "we need to drill down further."
There is "some documentation" the suspect had plans possibly for a shooting at "another large superstore," Gramaglia said. "He was going to get in his car and continue to drive down Jefferson Avenue and continue doing the same thing."
The revelations align with a 180-page racist diatribe authorities have attributed to the suspect, an 18-year-old White man who traveled nearly 200 miles to a supermarket that served as the hub of a predominantly Black neighborhood to unleash an attack. The massacre follows other mass shootings in recent years across the United States in which authorities say the suspect was motivated by hate.
