also right now, the faa and ntsb are investigating what caused a small plane to come crashing down on a miami bridge. that plane losing engine power, slamming into a car, and then both bursting into flames. at least one person has died. five others, including two toddlers were injured. and 25 years ago today, abc's peter jennings introduced the world to abcnews.com. the digital world just in its infancy back then, but through the years abcnews.com has evolved, and is now one of the top performing news sites in the world, and of course, now we have streaming, abc newslive, there's social media, there's the app and the push alerts and all that. a lot's changed. >> technology has grown. >> a lot of ways to stay connected to abc. >> yes. we begin this half hour with another look at our top story, the massacre at a supermarket in buffalo, new york. a gunman storming in and killing ten people reportedly bent on hate.
7:32 am
let's go back to abc's stephanie ramos in buffalo. good morning again, stephanie. >> reporter: hey there, eva. as you can see, police are still surrounding this parking lot, and the grocery store where authorities say that gunman arrived here and opened fire on shoppers. authorities say he was heavily armed wearing tactical gear, and military-type clothing. shoppers in and around the supermarket being forced to hide behind their cars, calling out for help as the gunman killed ten people and wounded three others in this mass shooting. authorities believe it was racially motivated. the suspect identified as 18-year-old payton gendron. he has been arraigned on one count of first degree murder and held without bail. police say before the shooting, gendron posted online a 180-page document where he writes about racist and anti-semitic ideas. authorities are now investigating the attack as a hate crime, and of course, the investigation is still ongoing as this community reels from this latest shooting.
7:33 am
janai? >> stephanie, thank you. and we are getting a better idea of the suspect this morning. abc's aaron katersky is here with more on what we're learning and good morning again to you. >> good morning to you, janai. this is just the kind of attack that law enforcement officials long feared. someone radicalized online with access to guns who takes inspiration from recent attacks and authorities have been going through that 180-page document believed to have been written by payton gendron. in it there's this praise for prior acts of violence motivated by hate, a shooting at a predominantly black church in south carolina, at a mosque in new zealand, at a walmart in el paso that targeted latinos, and more recently, law enforcement officials have been concerned there is more white supremacist rhetoric out there online, and it's becoming more violent. although it still does not explain how an 18-year-old not a year out of high school came to harbor so much hate.
7:34 am
guys, if convicted, gendron faces a maximum sentence of life in prison. he's charged with murder, but federal charges, hate crimes, and terrorism are certainly possible. >> yeah. and as you noted, law enforcement, they have been sending out these alerts. they have been warning us about acts like this for some time. a lot of questions. aaron, thank you. we want to turn now and get a check of the weather once again. meteorologist cheryl scott from our abc station in chicago, wls cheryl, good morning. >> good morning. we'll get sunshine in parts of the east coast today. i want to start you off this with epic video. you can see the clouds clearing here. london, kentucky, after a few storms move through, and take a look at that. that beauty double rainbow, and you can't have a rainbow without a little storm. that will be the theme today, a big story will be extreme heat again in texas. we're looking at triple digit heat. there have been big concerns here. power grid issues, and folks asked to conserve energy and that heat is just going to continue through the remainder of the week. above average temperatures and warmth moving across the east coast. so some summer-like heat in place for many like new england

7:36 am
well-being in our ever-changing society. >> what has it been like for you in your practice in the last two years? >> one of the things that i found in the last two years is that everyone for a few minutes, bit of time was in denial. the pandemic hasn't affected me. it hasn't changed my life, but as we got deeper and deeper into the pandemic, everything that was bothersome, everything that was a problem for them, whether it be work or family, relationships, all began to feel the effects of the pandemic. your health, and chip away at what they thought was strong foundations. behind this pandemic, we have found that there are things that we thought were really strong foundations, things that i call -- things that i absolutely know for sure. i'm married. my spouse loves me.
7:37 am
my children are doing well. i'm healthy. i have a home. i have a job. all of those things were up for being impacted by the pandemic, and so people who are coming to me now are trying to get back to who they were. and the one question that was common amongst most of all of my new clients were, tell me when i'm going to feel like myself again. >> many of you have asked that question. during this conversation, these women brought up things like the power of our imagination, and shifting the narrative of the grind culture. overworking to find a place of self-care, and rest, and embracing and being satisfied with who we areright now. you can catch more of a "gma" digital conversation breaking the mental health stigma for black women on "gma" digital, "nightline," abc newslive, and about mental health. >> yeah. >> this was a really powerful and humbling way to bring it to
7:38 am
the forefront. >> and what you said about denial, you know, resonates across the board and our instinct to tough it out and grind through, but there are resources available. it's a great conversation. >> yes. >> thank you. well, coming up on "good morning america," signs that the red hot housing market may be cooling off. what it means for buyers. and then still ahead here, stepping into a broadway role with only an hour rehearsal, that's ahead in "pop news." ♪ ♪ wow, we're crunching tons of polygons here! what's going on? where's regina? hi, i'm ladonna. i invest in invesco qqq, a fund that gives me access to the nasdaq-100 innovations, like real time cgi. okay... yeah... oh. don't worry i got it! become an agent of innovation with invesco qqq
