A civil rights advocate, a deacon and a heroic security guard were among 10 people killed in an apparent racism-driven rampage by an 18-year-old gunman who had been kicked out of the store the previous night.
New York State Police said troopers were called to the school on June 8, 2021, for a report that a 17-year-old student had made threatening statements. Police said the student was taken into custody under a state mental health law and taken to a hospital for evaluation. The police statement did not give the student’s name. Gendron graduated from the school in Conklin, about 10 miles southeast of Binghamton near the New York-Pennsylvania border.
“Nobody called in. Nobody called any complaints,” Gramaglia said. The threat was “general” in nature, he said, and not related to race. If convicted, Chowaniec faces up to seven years in prison. He has a felony hearing scheduled for Friday and remains in custody, both outlets said.New York state's “red flag” laws try to prevent mass shootings by identifying people who show signs that they might be a threat to themselves or others. Those laws allow family members, law enforcement and medical professionals or school officials to petition courts to temporarily seize the person’s guns or prevent purchase of weapons.
