Saturday, September 16, 8-11pm, Mock Park, 2520 Mock Rd.

It has been one year since Columbus Police officer Bryan Mason shot and killed 13-year-old Tyre King after mistaking him for a 19-year-old who allegedly had stolen $10. Bryan Mason is still on duty with the Columbus Police Department. Come out to join community, friends, and family as we send our Blessings Up to Tyre.

Please arrive to Mock Park by 8pm. We will release 13 blue balloons at 8:22pm, the time of Tyre’s passing. Please feel free to bring a balloon (or balloons) with you, as long as they are not blue. We would like to honor Tyre’s 13 years of life through the 13 blue balloons that we will have on site along with any other balloons that you all may bring.

The People’s Justice Project was asked to assist in outreach for this event but this event is being hosted by the family.
