Gang victim's mom dies

A grieving New York mother recognized by President Donald Trump at the State of the Union in his campaign against deadly MS-13 gang violence was struck by an SUV and killed at her slain daughter's memorial site Friday after a heated confrontation with the driver. Evelyn Rodriguez was hit around 4 p.m. in Brentwood, police said, on the street where her 16-year-old daughter Kayla Cuevas' body was found beaten and slashed two years ago to the day. Cuevas' friend, 15-year-old Nisa Mickens was also killed.
