Anti-gun violence advocates rallied in the South Bronx on Tuesday afternoon to denounce multiple shootings across the borough over the last five days.

Save Our Street, Bronx Rises Against Gun Violence and Release The Grip were among the anti-gun violence organizations that chanted on the corner of Brook Avenue and East 146th Street.

Their purpose is to prevent and reduce gun violence in neighborhoods by changing local norms and providing opportunities for youth.

"We can't stop everything, we wish we could, we are not going to ever stop giving up and making sure the communities and the young people are safe," said Marisol Rivera, with Save our Streets.

The rally comes on the heels of a violent five-day span in the borough.

At least 15 people have been reported shot, and three people died in shootings from Aug, 22 to Aug, 26, according to the NYPD.

"It doesn't shock me, the shooting here a few days ago, I was coming from third avenue, I got caught right in it, I heard the gun shot, all I could do was lean up against the wall, that's all I could do.. Nobody should have to live like this," said Beatrice Diaz who lives near Brook Avenue.

A 34-year-old man was pronounced dead after he was shot on Croes Avenue Tuesday afternoon. Just over an hour later, a 31-year-old man was shot in the foot on East Tremont Avenue near Bryant Avenue.

On Tuesday morning, a 32-year-old man died after he was shot in the back on Anthony Avenue near East 176th Street.

The gunfire followed a deadly weekend, where one man was killed and four others were injured during a basketball tournament at Haffen Playground on Saturday night.

That same night, two men in their 20's survived after being shot in Williamsbridge between East 212th and East 211th streets.

On Aug, 22, a 46-year-old man was killed outside his apartment building near East 164th Street and Washington Avenue, according to police.

Hours before, four teenagers were hurt after they were shot on Overing Street in Westchester Square.

According to NYPD data, the number of victims under 18 years old is growing. There have been 77 teens who have fallen victim to gunfire so far this year, compared to 62 at the same time last year.
