The Buffalo FBI is investigating whether a former federal agent knew beforehand of an accused gunman’s plans to murder black people at a local supermarket, law enforcement officials told The Buffalo News.
Officials believe the retired agent was one of at least six individuals who regularly communicated about “racial hatred” with accused gunman Payton Gendron in a chat room, one official with close knowledge of the investigation told The Buffalo News.
The FBI is currently investigating the six individuals, including the retired agent, in an attempt to determine if any of them should be charged as accomplices to the shooting, the two sources close to the investigation told The Buffalo News.
