BUFFALO, NY- The family of a retired police officer who was killed in the Top’s supermarket mass shooting will now have a permanent roof over their heads after producer Metro Boomin paid off their mortage.
The son of Aaron Salter Jr., Aaron Salter III, posted a photo on Instagram which shows him outside of his home, holding a sign up with his mother, Kimberly Salyer, which read “Paid In Full.”
The caption read: “How many producers you know look out for people when they need it most?.” “Gotta say thanks to my favorite producer @metroboomin he called me and asked if he could help me during my tragic loss and did just that!, No more mortgage Paid in full!!! Thanks @metroboomin ill never forget what you did!.”
Metro Boomin replied under the comments writing “Love always bro! My line is always open and I meant every single thing I said back when we spoke.”
Salter was one of 13 people killed in the Top’s supermarket massacre in Buffalo, New York, on May 14. The shooting was racially motivated after 11 of the 13 victims were African American.
The gunman, Payton Gendron, drove 200 miles from his home and had planned the mass shooting.
Salter was a security guard at the supermarket. He had served the Buffalo Police Department for decades before retiring.
When Gendron began shooting at customers, Salter never hesitated and sprang into action. He fired at Gendron multiple times but failed to kill him due to the body armor Gendron was wearing.
