The shooter then killed himself.
“He hated Black people,” Sheriff T.K. Waters told a news conference. “There is absolutely no evidence the shooter is part of any larger group.”
The shooting happened just before 2 p.m. at a Dollar General near Edward Waters University, a small historically Black university. Penny Jones told the The Associated Press that she worked at the store until a few months ago. She lives a few blocks away in the predominantly Black neighborhood.
