The names and ages of the 10 victims of the Buffalo, New York, mass shooting have been released, WIVB-TV reporter Chris Horvatits said on Twitter.
The victims were identified as 32-year-old Roberta A. Drury, 52-year-old Margus D. Morrison, 53-year-old Andre Mackneil, 55-year-old Aaron Salter, 62-year-old Geraldine Talley, 65-year-old Celestine Chaney, 67-year-old Heyward Patterson, 72-year-old Katherine Massey, 77-year-old Pearl Young, and 86-year-old Ruth Whitfield.
The list includes a retired police officer, a mother who was shopping for strawberry shortcakes, and a civil rights leader who last year wrote a letter to her local paper, the Buffalo News, calling for stronger gun control policies.
There were also three surviving victims of the shooting, identified by Horvatits as 20-year-old Zaire Goodman, 50-year-old Jennifer Warrington, and 55-year-old Christopher Braden.
Horvatits reported that Goodman and Warrington have been from the hospital.
Police identified Saturday's shooting suspect as an 18-year-old white man. Officials said he traveled hours to reach the predominately Black community before opening fire inside the Tops grocery store.
Officials called the shooting a "racially motivated hate crime" during a weekend press conference.
The shooting suspect was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. He has pleaded not guilty.
