YouTube star PewDiePie expressed his remorse on Friday morning over the lives lost in the New Zealand mosque massacre after he was mentioned by the shooter in video of the attack.
As the man identifying himself as Brenton Tarrant walked onto a Christchurch street following a shooting rampage inside one of the two mosques he targeted, he can be heard saying, “Remember lads, subscribe to PewDiePie,” according to Newsweek. He then opened fire on passersby.
The death toll currently stands at 49 with another 48 people injured, making it in the worst mass shooting in New Zealand’s history.
