A bloody shooting took place in a supermarket on Saturday, May 14, in the state of New York. The balance sheet is heavy with at least ten dead and three wounded. Behind this act, a man with obvious racist motivations.
He comes quietly on the supermarket car park. With his marksman’s gloves, he films thanks to the camera on his helmet. On the passenger seat appears his weapon of war. He opens the door and within minutes, Payton Gendron18, is going to commit carnage. There are 10 dead. “I saw this guy in full military combat gear, he was shooting people.”says a survivor.
His massacre completed, the killer surrendered when the police arrived. Charged with murder, he pleaded not guilty. Investigators found a 180-page manifesto on Internet and racist inscriptions were painted on his gun. The residents are upset. Investigators also found writings by the killer in which he relays the conspiracy theory of the great replacement of whites. Kathy Hochulthe governor of the state of New Yorkalert on the influence of social networks.
