Just days after a Brown Deer man opened fire at the Azana Salon & Spa, Waukesha college students hold a vigil in the victim's memories.
Carroll University held a candlelight vigil Wednesday night to remember the victims of the Azana Salon & Spa shooting. Eight children lost their mothers in Sunday's mass shooting at the spa: Zina Haughton's two daughters, Cary Robuck's two daughters and Maelyn Lind's daughter and three sons.
