Reshaud M. Biggs Jr. was 17 and from Youngstown, Ohio when he was fatally shot on July 18, 2021. The shooting happened while he was pumping gas at a station on South and East Avondale Avenues, about a block from where his father, Reshaud Biggs Sr., was killed in 2019. Reshaud Jr. was remembered by his family as athletic and for a smile that lit up a room.

A 21-year-old, Carlos Flores Jr., turned himself in to police about a week after the shooting and was charged with murder. Flores later pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and felonious assault and received a prison term of 20 to 25 and a half years. Reshaud’s mother, Kristin Biggs, has become an advocate against violence and plans to start a foundation in his memory.

Anyone who knew Reshaud, saw him that day, or has information about the shooting is asked to come forward.
