Muslim Students’ Association holds vigil for Chapel Hill victims

The GW Muslim Students’ Association held a vigil Friday for the three Muslim students in Chapel Hill, N.C. who were killed earlier this week.

Students gathered in Kogan Plaza to hold candles and listen to their classmates give speeches.

Deah Shaddy Barakat, 23, Yusor Mohammad Abu-Salha, 21, and Razaan Mohammad Abu-Salha, 19, died Tuesday in a shooting near the University of North Carolina. A neighbor, Craig Stephen Hicks, 46, was charged with three counts of murder.
