Join us on Monday, November 13 from 11am - 9pm to support Justice for Jonathan O'Shaughnessy!

On July 3, 2017, 24-year-old Richfield-native Jonathan O’Shaughnessy was walking home with family members from the City of Richfield Street Dance. While walking, a van pulled up and fired at them, killing Jonathan. These assailants were unknown to Jonathan or the family and they still have not been caught. Jonathan’s murder has devastated his family and many friends. Family and friends are keeping up their strength by hoping that the Richfield Police Department solve this senseless act of violence so that nothing like this will happen again in Richfield.

Funds raised at this event will go towards Justice for Jonathan printing/supplies/apparel, monthly 'Pay It Forward' events, the Jonathan O'Shaughnessy Free Pantry and a Minnesota State Fair Bench that will help us share Jonathan's name and story to the million+ people that attend the MN Great Get-Together every year.

Mention Justice for Jonathan O'Shaughnessy or use the code "STL-RICHFIELD" on 11/13 and Pizza Lucé will donate 25% of your Carry-Out or Dine-In order in support of this event.

Gift card purchases and orders paid for using a gift card will not count toward this fundraiser. Valid on dine-in and curbside pick-up orders only.
