Original Note:
There’s no evidence that Aaron Salter Jr. was killed for his work on a water powered car. Salter was among other victims in the Buffalo mass shooting who were targeted for being Black. The FBI deemed the mass shooting a hate crime. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/jun/02/facebook-posts/salters-buffalo-slaying-was-unrelated-his-work-wat/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/2022/05/16/buffalo-shooting-previous-supermarket-confrontation/
