Federal officials are investigating the shooting that killed 10 Black people as a hate crime.
BUFFALO, N.Y. - A 911 dispatcher is on leave and may lose her job after allegedly hanging up on an supermarket employee hiding during this weekend’s shooting rampage in Buffalo, New York.
A spokesperson for the Erie County executive said “termination will be sought” for the dispatcher at a disciplinary hearing later this month. An employee at the supermarket where 10 Black people were killed by a white gunman on Saturday told The Buffalo News that she was whispering during the 911 call because she feared the shooter would hear her.Copyright 2022 The Associated Press.
