Eyewitness News reporter Josh Einiger was live in Harlem with more on the vigil.
Here are the other major stories from Tuesday's show:

A 13-year-old boy who was shot in the head on Staten Island on Friday has died. Jamoure Harrell succumbed to his injuries on Monday, officials announced Tuesday.

Queens school bus fire
Several students were rescued safely after a fire engulfed an entire school bus in Queens on Tuesday.

The fire also spread to nearby cars. Six students who were on board the bus were evacuated safely by the bus driver.
Trial date tentatively set for Trump New York criminal case
Former President Trump, side-by-side with his attorney Todd Blanche, scowled into a camera, his hands folded on the table, as he appeared virtually Tuesday for the judge presiding over his criminal case. Judge Juan Merchan said Trump would stand trial March 25, 2024, at which point Trump appeared to flash an irritated expression, perhaps because the date conflicts with the primary calendar as he seeks to reclaim the presidency.
