HARTFORD, Conn. — The Hartford community gathered Monday night for a vigil to remember three-year old Randell Jones.
Jones was one of two victims in Saturday's back-to-back shootings in broad daylight.
The vigil generated a large and emotional response.
The victim being a toddler made many community members realize just how bad the violence in the city has gotten.
"I mean, three years old! Didn’t even have a chance to see life!" said Thomas Lumpkin of Hartford.
Lumpkin was one of many people who attended to send his condolences at the memorial.
