A gunman who killed 10 people in a racially-motivated shooting at a Buffalo, New York, supermarket last year has been sentenced to life in prison at a dramatic hearing.

Payton Gendron, 19, pleaded guilty to 25 counts, including first-degree murder and terrorism motivated by hate.

Ahead of the sentencing on Wednesday, a family member rushed towards Gendron but was constrained by security.

Family members shared emotional impact statements.

Barbara Massey, whose sister Katherine was killed, said to the gunman: "You are going to come to our city and decide you don't like black people. Man, you don't know a [...] thing about black people. We're human."
