This is a picture located near the Cambria Car Wash on the corner of Linden Boulevard and Springfield Boulevard in Cambria Heights, Queens. This young man, Kevin Miller Jr. was only 13 years old when he was innocently shot and killed by a someone during a fight among students of a nearby school. He was an innocent bystander who was standing near the car wash shortly after 3:00 p.m. on Friday, October 2, 2009. Kevin was a student at Campus Magnet Humanities and the Arts High School (formerly known as Andrew Jackson High School). Young Kevin was just getting out of school when he was shot in the head and was dead on arrival when he was taken to Long Island Jewish Medical Center.
His heart broken mom, Donna Greaves says ” Kevin, a junior usher at the New Jerusalem Baptist Church in Queens who attended a Bible study group, was not the type of kid to get mixed up in a street brawl where bullets might fly.” In December 2012, 2 members of the Crips gang was convicted of Kevin’s murder. Kevin will always be remembered.
