“Last night, a shooting took place at the Wilmington Recreation Center after the Summer Night Lights Program ended and a member of our Wilmington community lost his life. The victim, a volunteer at the event, was helping barbecue for the families attending,” said Councilmember Tim McOsker.
“Summer Night Lights works to build trust and offer fun, positive programming to communities impacted by violence by making the public spaces safe and full of our neighbors.
Horrific acts like this attempt to break that safety and community apart but we won’t let it.
Please join me in praying for the victim and his family and friends."
