WEST HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) — An employee was killed and two people were wounded Tuesday in a shooting at a Long Island grocery store, police said.

Nassau County Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder said a person of interest in the shooting had worked at the store and remains at large.

The shooting happened around 11 a.m. inside a manager’s office upstairs from the shopping floor at the Stop & Shop in West Hempstead, Ryder said.

The man who was killed was a 49-year-old store employee, Ryder said. The two wounded were hospitalized and were conscious and alert.

Local story.

[Steely Tom]

Perhaps someone decided to “get more confrontational.”

[glimmerman70]

Sounds like he gots fired and didn’t like it.

As usual, no description of the shooter.

I googled his name.

Amazing how they forgot to describe him, like everyone would know just to be on the lookout of what he was/is wearing.

Sheesh. Twats.

According to some posts on another thread, the suspect is black. If true, the story will be about the need for gun control. If the suspect is white, it is about the danger posed by white males, white privilege, and systemic racism.

"Why is this national news?"

These days, everything is potentially national news if it satisfies a specific narrative. Thus, a racial slur uttered in a supermarket checkout line can become national news. Remember a couple of years ago it was national news when a Starbucks manager called police to oust a couple of black loiterers?

I wouldn’t bet that he’ll make it to trial.

I think the Leftists made an overreaching error. By wailing “Oh, the humanity, of the guns out of control, shooting everywhere, grab them all....” they accidentally happened onto the race of the majority of gun crimes.

The other wanted man from one or two days ago I think may still be at large. Not sure. Now this guy is at large.

So people are all watching for black men everywhere and ready to turn them in to the police. Unintended Leftist consequences.

Hourly mass shootings just like pedo joementia said.
