Three people were shot in a New York grocery store this morning, with one already being pronounced dead by authorities. The suspect is said to still be at large:
NBC NEWS – Authorities are on the scene of a deadly shooting at a grocery store in New York, officials said.
The Nassau County Police Department said shortly after noon that the shooting occurred at a Stop & Shop supermarket in Long Island, New York.
During a midday news briefing, Nassau County Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder said one person was dead and two others were wounded. Police have not released the conditions of the other victims.

I predict that, just like with the Capitol shooting a few weeks ago, the media will quickly lose interest in this story because the suspect isn’t white. That seems to be all they care about these days.
