People left flowers and messages to express solidarity with the people affected by the attacks.

49 people were killed in the shootings on Friday.

A white supremacist suspected in the shootings at the two mosques during midday Friday prayers posted an anti-immigrant manifesto online and apparently used a helmet-mounted camera to broadcast live video of the slaughter on Facebook.

Brenton Harrison Tarrant appeared in court Saturday morning amid strict security and showed no emotion when the judge read him one murder charge.

The judge said "it was reasonable to assume" more such charges would follow.
