Hariss Mojadedi, an AAPI community organizer, addressed the crowd who gathered for the candlelight vigil.
"We are here tonight to honor Reinhart's legacy. We are here tonight because he was a son, and husband. And because there are too many deaths gun violence. There is too much hate," says Mojadedi.
