Police officials said on Wednesday that it is still too early in the investigation to determine if the fatal shootings at three massage parlours in the Atlanta area that left eight people dead, mostly women of Asian descent, were hate crimes. “Even though we have made an arrest, there’s still a lot more work to be done,” Atlanta police chief Rodney Bryant said.
