29 years since the 1993 Long Island Rail Road massacre.
A total of
six people were killed and 19 others were injured when Colin Ferguson opened
fire on a train as it pulled into the Merillon Avenue station.
The
shooting sparked calls for gun reform in New York and across the country.
It also led a nurse from Garden City, Carolyn McCarthy, to
shift her career and become a congresswoman fighting for gun control after her
husband was among those killed.
News 12 was joined by Joyce Gorycki, who lost her husband
in that massacre 29 years ago today.
