Buffalo announces 'first of its kind' lawsuit against gun manufacturers
Fox News
Officials in Buffalo, New York, announced a "first of its kind" lawsuit targeting firearms manufacturers for their alleged contribution to gun violence in the city.
"Members of our community have suffered too much and for too long from gun violence. We must do everything we can to decrease gun violence. Enabling the possession of illegal guns destroys lives and deeply effects our neighborhoods, especially in Black and Brown communities," said Mayor Byron Brown.

The lawsuit comes seven months after a racist gunman killed 10 Black people and wounded three others in a shooting massacre at a Buffalo supermarket. Police said the 18-year-old suspect used a legally purchased rifle to carry out the deadly shooting.
