‘Nothing changed’: Buffalo’s East Side still struggling a year after shooting

A year after the shooting at a supermarket that left 10 dead, residents say that when the cameras left, so did the potential for investment in the community

A year ago, a white supremacist gunman committed a mass shooting at a Tops Friendly Markets on Buffalo's East Side that left 10 people dead, several more injured, and a community forever changed.

The predominantly Black East Side neighborhood lost its only grocery store for two months and a day, once again making the area into a food desert. In the gunman's wake came national and international media - and, with them, widespread attention from charitable organizations and people.
