5The family of Shannon Sutton, the youngest victim in the shooting, says his birthday was just days away, and he leaves behind a 3-year-old daughter.
23-year-old Shannon Sutton, who was among the other three men killed in the shooting, was supposed to celebrate his 24th birthday on Thursday, October 3rd.
His mother Roslyn Sutton told 12News that she is deeply hurt over her son’s untimely death. “He’s not here. I’m just so hurt,” Sutton said.
Shannon’s sister, Nagee Sutton, said when she heard the news about the shooting, she had hoped her brother was not at the home at the time.
“Like right now, he would probably want to see me smiling, but it hurts cause he is not here. He was young,” she told 12News.
“When they said it might have looked like a body like him, my heart dropped because he didn’t answer the phone. And when they came out and told me, I just kept thinking he wasn’t there but he was there.”
Shannon’s mother also revealed that her son leaves behind a daughter.
“She is just 3 years old. My son didn’t get a chance to see her grow up. It’s just hard, It’s just hard,” said Roslyn Sutton.
