An event is happening in the City of Albany to honor a high school student who was killed in a shooting in the city.

The mother of Destiny Greene is hosting a block party Sunday from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. in Krank Park in Albany.

Free backpacks filled with school supplies will be given out to students who attend the event.

Destiny was shot and killed on May 24, 2021.

The Shaker High School student was sitting in a car on Wilbur Street, when shots were fired during a robbery.

One man, Brandon Rivera was sentenced in her death.

Another man, Sincere Cancer, was arraigned earlier this month.
