In Buffalo (United States)a massacre left 10 dead in a supermarket. The racial motivations of the 18-year-old suspect, Payton Gendronare hardly in doubt.
The emotion, and the incomprehension, a few moments after the horror. To buffalo (United States)in the state of New Yorka man has killed 10 people in a supermarket, mostly African Americans. “I saw him shoot a woman, then a clergyman, then a woman again. He entered the store and continued to shoot,” says Grady Lewis, a witness.
The suspect, Payton Gendron18 years old, has broadcast his crime live on a social network. We see him driving his car, approaching the supermarket. In his rearview mirror, we guess his equipment: a military helmet and an automatic weapon. The video, unbearable and blocked by the social network after two minutes, shows Payton Gendron shoot every person he meets. The young man surrendered to the police and his motives are in doubt: he had drawn up a manifesto referring to other racist crimes committed in recent years.
