ALBANY, N.Y. (NEWS10) - Governor Kathy Hochul said on Sunday, that flags on state buildings will be flown at half-staff on May 16, to honor victims of the horrific shooting at Top's Market in Buffalo.

"The violence we witnessed at the hands of this white supremacist is sickening, unacceptable and it must stop here," Governor Hochul said.
