ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — Family, friends and community members came together Saturday night to honor an Orange County teenager who was shot and killed exactly one week ago.
Close to 200 people with candles filled the streets, walking to a vigil for 14-year-old Antony Reid.
TRENDING NOW:
His family is still looking for justice and hopes the community will come together to help them find closure.
His family stood in the area where he lost his life as people gathered around during the memorial.
They prayed, sang and shared their favorite memories of Reid in the place where his body was found on JR Street.
“We want justice,” Reid’s mother, Annie Pratt, said. “It just doesn't make any sense, that it keeps being crimes being committed, all the killing and nothing's being done. We just want justice.”
Several people spoke during the vigil, including people who live nearby and said they tried to help save his life.
Police have released few details about the teen's death or a possible motive.
