Local organizations, family members of victims of violence and officials gathered outside Richard’s Hall and Lounge on Avenue L after a mass shooting over the weekend.
Four people were hurt during a shooting there early Sunday morning.
The rally called for an end to the violence, as well as more funding for anti-violence programs and changes in legislation.
The incident comes amid a few shootings in Brooklyn over the past week, including a 14-year-old shot dead in Sunset Park on Friday and a woman injured in a shooting Monday in Downtown Brooklyn.
