By The Associated Press

BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — Authorities say a white, 18-year-old gunman in military gear who was livestreaming with a helmet camera opened fire with a rifle at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York, on Saturday, killing 10 Black people and wounding three other victims. Here’s what we know: Officials say they are investigating the shooting Saturday afternoon as a racially motivated hate crime. Payton Gendron, of Conklin, New York, has been arraigned on a murder charge and pleaded not guilty. Authorities have not commented on a document that purports to outline the attacker’s racist, anti-immigrant and antisemitic beliefs. A gun store owner confirmed he sold a rifle to Gendron.
