BREAKING NEWS: Yvette Marie Torres Rally Rescheduled for July 2

Organizers Need Additional Week to Prepare, As Extremely Large Turnout is Anticipated

"From The G-Man" has just been informed that the rally set for Saturday, June 25, from 11:30am to 6pm, has been rescheduled for July 2.

Nelson Figueroa, one of the event organizers, noted they will need an additional week to set up the event because of the enormous response they have received from various agencies, individuals and community groups since the announcement was made earlier in the week.

"This event is becoming bigger than I ever imagined. The response has really been great," said Figueroa.

The rally will still be held in the Fordham section of the Bronx at 2396 Valentine Avenue, which is where the 15-year-old Yvette Marie Torres, a DeWitt Clinton High School student, was shot after a confrontation with two young men.
