'''Payton S. Gendron''' (born June 20, 2003) is an American white supremacist who committed a racially motivated [[mass shooting]] at a Tops Friendly Markets supermarket in Buffalo, New York on May 14, 2022, killing ten people and injuring three others. The attack is the deadliest mass shooting of 2022.

==Early life==
Payton S. Gendron was born and raised in Conklin, New York. He has two younger brothers. He attended school in the Susquehanna Valley Central School District. In June 2021, he had been investigated by police for threatening violence to students at his school. He was later referred for a mental health evaluation and counseling.

==Manifesto==
Prior to the shooting, Gendron wrote a 180-page manifesto titled "The Great Replacement", named after the racist theory that white Europeans are being demographically and culturally replaced with non-European people. He blamed Jews for non-white immigration and wrote that non-whites will commit genocide on the white race in the manifesto. The manifesto also includes details on the planned shooting.

==Buffalo shooting==
At approximately 2:30 p.m. on May 14, 2022, Gendron drove from Conklin to a Tops Friendly Markets in Jefferson Avenue in Buffalo, New York. He had been wearing military gear and body armor and was armed with three firearms: a semiautomatic rifle, a hunting rifle, and a shotgun. He had a head mounted camera through which he livestreamed the attack on Twitch. Gendron killed three people and wounded one in the parking lot. He then entered the store, where he shot eight more people, killing six of them, yelling out racial slurs as well. Of the people he shot, 11 were Black and two were white. Shortly after, he was taken into custody by police in front of the store. He put his gun to his neck, but patrol officers talked him into dropping it.
