Remembering Junior 1 year after the Belmont teen’s murder

Thursday marked one year since 15-year-old Lesandro "Junior" Guzman-Feliz was brutally killed outside a bodega in Belmont by members of the Trinitarios gang.
Last week, five gang members were convicted of first-degree murder in Junior's stabbing. Eight more defendants are awaiting trial.
Family, friends and community members honored the 15-year-old's memory during a Mass at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church in Belmont. After the Mass, a candlelight vigil was held at the place he was attacked.
