Scene: A Memorial for Shyanne Charles
WHERE: Near Morningside Avenue and Danzig Street
WHEN: July 17, 2012
WHAT: On Tuesday night, mourners and some officials attended a memorial for the two people killed during Monday’s gunfight during a barbeque at a public housing complex near Morningside Avenue and Danzig Street. A focal point of last night’s gathering was a nearby bus shelter that has turned into an impromptu memorial for Shyanne Charles, the 14-year-old girl who died as a result of the shooting. A candlelight vigil was held in front of her housing complex, near Kingston and Galloway roads. Joshua Yasay, 23, was also killed during the shooting.
