Clark and her boyfriend, Omari Lewis, were gunned down in a brazen attack on Hanns Street in Villa earlier today, sending shockwaves through the community and leaving families shattered.
Hopkins, overcome with emotion, described a pain no family should have to endure, as loved ones grapple with the sudden and violent loss of two young lives.
