Syracuse, N.Y. As protesters entered Firefighter’s Memorial Park Wednesday night, they joined the growing crowd in chanting: “Justice for Judson.”
The crowd, which grew to about 60 people, was holding a candlelight vigil for Judson Albahm, 17, of Jamesville.
Judson was fatally shot by police last Thursday afternoon along Apulia Road after police say he pointed an airgun made to look like Glock at them while the teen was suffering a mental health crisis.

Onondaga County Sheriff Eugene Conway has been elected twice to that office. He needs to answer to the public more than every four years. Now would be a good time.
Conway’s department was part of a law enforcement contingent responding March 4 to a call from a Jamesville family about their teenage son’s mental health crisis. The incident ended with 17-year-old Judson Albahm dead of multiple gunshots, after officers said the teen pointed what looked like a gun at them. It turned out to be an air gun.
