CHICAGO (WLS) -- A youth prayer march honored nine-year-old murder victim Tyshawn Lee Saturday afternoon.

The event was organized by Prayer Chicago Youth Edition and the group marched to the location where Tyshawn's body was found in Chicago's Gresham neighborhood.

Police say he was lured into an alley and murdered in retribution related to his father's alleged gang ties.
