'The evidence points towards acts of hate,' New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal said.
This week's attack on a kosher supermarket in Jersey City, New Jersey, that left six people dead is being investigated as domestic terrorism, according to New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal.
Shots broke out at around 12:30 p.m. on Tuesday outside of the city's JC Kosher Supermarket. Law enforcement called the shooting an"ambush" and confirmed six casualties: three victims from inside the supermarket, two suspects and a police officer. The gunfire between the suspects and the police lasted for over an hour.
"We continue to gather evidence regarding the motives of the shooters," Grewal said on Thursday. He added that law enforcement officials have identified several social media accounts they believe were used by the suspects to espouse their viewpoints.
