A number of parents and family members who lost children to gun violence are joined forces with police officers and community leaders Monday evening in Northwest Miami-Dade in the second annual Parents of Murdered Kids March.
The vigil started in the area of Northwest 87th Street and 17th Avenue, and led participants to Northwest 93rd Street, where they lit candles in memory of the young victims.
This year’s march is taking place in the wake of several shootings in Northwest Miami-Dade.
Just weeks ago, a 2-year-old boy was gunned down near Homestead.
Two teens were also shot and killed in the last week.
Police are still searching for the killers in both cases.
