Ten people were killed by a gunman dressed in body armor and armed with a high powered rifle, while three others were wounded – two of them critically – outside and inside a Tops supermarket on Jefferson Avenue this afternoon.

A Buffalo police official at the scene and another source close to law enforcement confirmed the massacre at the supermarket.

"It’s like walking onto a horror movie, but everything is real. It is armageddon-like," said the police official at the scene. "It is so overwhelming."

One of the deceased was a recently retired Buffalo police officer who was working security at the store, both sources said.

The Buffalo News is withholding the retired officer’s identity because it could not be determined if his family had yet been notified.

As many as five bodies were found in the parking lot, the onsite police official said.

"Bullets and blood are everywhere," the source said.

Shonnell Harris, an operation manager at the Tops, said she heard gun shots and ran frantically through the store, falling several times before exiting out the back. She saw the shooter, whom she described as a white man wearing camouflage. "He looked like he was in the Army." Harris thought she heard 70 shots.

The shooter had a camera and police are looking into whether he live streamed video from the scene, the official said.

The shooter was taken into custody and placed in a police vehicle at the scene, according to the two sources.

The shooter was cloaked in body armor and had a military grade helmet on his head.

It is unknown if he offered a reason for the massacre.

Inside the supermarket, several other victims were found, the two sources said, and some of the deceased individuals appeared to be hiding near cash register lines.

Adding to the horror, one of the sources said, was family members arriving after word spread in the community about the shooting.

Others at the scene started streaming the shooting on Facebook Live.

Will G., a dairy frozen worker at the Tops on Jefferson, said he walked into the cooler to stock milk about three minutes before the shooting. "I just heard shots. Shots and shots and shots," he said. "It sounded like things were falling over."

The worker hid in the cooler and more people joined him, he said. "I hid. I just hid. I wasn't going to leave that room."

A large police presence shut down the area north of Jefferson Avenue at Northampton Street. The Tops Markets is at the intersection of Jefferson Avenue and Riley Street, about two blocks north of Jefferson and Northampton.

Erie County Executive Mark C. Poloncarz tweeted at 2:49 p.m. that he was aware of an "active multiple shooting event" that occurred at the Tops Markets at 1275 Jefferson Ave. He urged the public to avoid the area.

New ban on civilians buying or wearing military style clothing. The clothes are the problem. Now onto the evil gun that dragged the poor innocent shooter out to satisfy its bloodthirsty desires to kill other people.  He had no choice he had to get it on
Sure this will put every gun owner in a box as a threat to public health now. WHO will declare guns a pandemic.

Nah, that'll just make anything he used "military style" and therefore no civilian should own.

Reportedly nine people capped, five in the dome.  At least one fatality.

Yeah, I’m just going on what they’ve confirmed.  I’d guess at least five dead if five headshots. I know it’s not always 100% but safe bet.

It probably wouldn't be if people were allowed to carry guns and actually did. Perp would be ventilated from multiple angles.

Also, it funny how this happens in states with the strictest gun control laws.

I was at tractor supply today, and guy in front of me open carrying (had his wife and lil kids with him) in the checkout lane. The fudds in checkout on the other side were like omg! I wondered why that checkout lane was not backed up. Me, checked out faster than the fudds scared of a holstered glock. No one shot either.

If someone can grab and post the screens on that tweet I posted it’d be great.  Team membership lapsed and no time to sort ATM.  I’d expect that’ll get nuked soon.
