Gun accessory company to pay $1.75 million to Buffalo supermarket shooting victims

Buffalo Supermarket Shooting Lawsuit - (Copyright 2022 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.)

The maker of a gun accessory tied to a racist shooting that killed 10 Black people at a supermarket in Buffalo will pay $1.75 million to survivors and victims' families and stop selling the device in New York, state Attorney General Letitia James said Wednesday.

The agreement with Georgia-based Mean Arms settles a lawsuit filed by James and covers claims from various victims’ families and survivors of the 2022 attack at Tops Friendly Market. They also reached agreements to resolve their own separate suits against gunman Payton Gendron’s family and a gun seller Vintage Firearms LLC, the plaintiffs’ lawyers announced the previous day.
