BOSTON - The family of a Boston man is looking for answers after he was gunned down near the Forest Hills MBTA stop by a shooter police say was on a moped. "I lost a friend, I lost a brother, a really good guy," said Francis Gonzalez of his 35-year-old friend Andy Baez Manan also known as Jusepy.

On Thursday, family and friends gathered at a funeral home in Dorchester wearing a T-shirt that memorializes him and the number he wore on his softball team. They say they're still trying to understand what happened the night of July 14.
