historic black church in Charleston, S.C., on Wednesday night.
Nine people were killed
in the shooting.
FBI identified the
suspect as 21-year-old Dylan Storm Roof.

Federal authorities are
treating the attack as a hate crime.
The gunman attended a
bible study class at the church for about an hour before opening fire,
officials said.
The names of the victims
have not formally been released, but S.C. State Sen. Clementa Pinckney, a
pastor at the church, was among the dead, his colleagues said.
President Obama condemned
the killings as another example of mass gun violence.
