The whole area was closed off by police and helicopters with powerful headlights were raised to help search for the shooter who would leave immediately after firing an automatic weapon.
A witness to the shooting told local television that so many shots were fired that “it felt like the Vietnam War,” reports the website 13WHAM News.
At the same time this mass shooting was taking place in Rochester NY, there was another multi-victim shooting in Louisville Kentucky-

Simmons is the acting chief of police in Rochester. The former manager, La’Ron D. Singletary, was fired after the death of Daniel Prude, an African-American who died on March 30 from asphyxia: agents had hooded him while pressing his head against the asphalt for at least two minutes.
