Francisco Rivas, a 19-year-old pizza delivery driver was shot and killed Thursday night in Northeast.
ABC7's Horace Holmes was with the family and friends as they held a vigil for the young man Friday night at the corner where he was killed, 10th and Gallatin Streets, NE.
Rivas, the father of a one-year-old son, was shot in the head and killed execution-style, police say.
Family members say Rivas had only been working for Papa John's Pizza for three weeks.
Last night, he was handing out advertising flyers to homes in the quiet neighborhood when someone walked up and shot him.
The family is struggling for answers. And police are looking for a killer.
