Hundreds of people gathered in the street Sunday morning near the Jefferson Avenue Tops Markets that was the target of Saturday’s mass shooting for a prayer vigil that evolved into a Black Lives Matter protest and a rally against gun violence.
"This is not the time to tear up our own community, because our community did not do this," True Bethel Bishop and Buffalo Common Council President Darius G. Pridgen told those gathered at his church Sunday, encouraging them to grieve in a healthy way.
Rev. Charles Walker addresses the crowd gathered near the Tops Markets on Jefferson Avenue in Buffalo. Walker helped organize the vigil for the 10 killed and three injured in a mass shooting on Saturday.
"I can't sleep. I can eat a little bit, but I just keep hearing gunshots and just seeing the bodies," said the employee, who wished to give only her first name, Latisha.
