TOLEDO, Ohio — Family and friends gathered to honor Stephon Johnson, a teen gunned down at a mass shooting over the weekend.
"We need to know, we all need to know, my baby shine, I want his star to continue to shine. He was a good kid, he didn't bother nobody. He looked out for all y'all, every last one of y'all," Johnson's mother said.
