A 16-year-old suspect is currently at large and wanted by authorities following the fatal shooting of 15-year-old Riley Billingslea in the Bronx, New York. The incident occurred last Wednesday inside an apartment on Claflin Avenue in the Kingsbridge Heights neighborhood. According to police reports, Billingslea was fatally shot in the head during an argument with another teenager. A 13-year-old individual was also grazed by a bullet during the altercation. The investigation remains ongoing as law enforcement seeks to apprehend the accused shooter. In the wake of the tragedy, Billingslea’s family has publicly pleaded for the suspect to surrender. At a vigil held on Tuesday, Billingslea’s grandmother, Elaine Rogers, addressed the suspect’s parents directly, urging them to turn the teen over to justice. She described her grandson as a good kid and expressed the profound anguish of the family. Billingslea’s mother, Ketrice Riley, also spoke at the gathering, urging the young man to turn himself in and explain that the shooting was an accident. Friends and community members gathered to honor Billingslea, who was attending military school and known for his ability to make people laugh. The vigil highlighted community frustration regarding youth violence and the accessibility of firearms. Neighbors expressed exhaustion with the cycle of violence and questioned where the weapons are coming from. The family and community are calling for accountability and an end to the violence that has claimed Billingslea’s life.
