Mayor promotes gun buyback program

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - Buffalo City Hall is trying to get more weapons off city streets.

Friday afternoon, Mayor Byron Brown and Masten District Council Member Demone Smith toured the Delavan-Grider neighborhood, passing out flyers promoting next month's gun buyback program.

On August 15th, anyone can turn in a gun in exchange for a debit card. No questions asked.

16-year-old Michael Mayfield was gunned down in the same neighborhood two nights ago.
His killer has not been caught.
