Hundreds Mourn Synagogue Shooting Victims At Squirrel Hill Vigil: 'This Is Not Something That We're Going To Let Break Us'

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) — Hundreds of people, possibly up to 1,000 or more, gathered in Squirrel Hill on Saturday evening for a candlelight vigil to remember the victims of the Tree of Life Synagogue shooting and show support for their families and the Jewish community.

The vigil was organized by Taylor Allderdice High School students, and included singing, speeches and a general sense of community togetherness.

The large crowd gathered at Forbes and Murray Avenues, at the base of the Carnegie Library. Across the street, at the Sixth Presbyterian Church, an interfaith service was going on at the same time.
