An Omaha family is devastated after a teenage father-to-be was shot and killed outside a nightclub Saturday night. Surveillance video indicates the victim was shot after police arrived to investigate a fireworks/disturbance complaint.

The video shows a crowd scatter outside the El Dorado Club near 24th and Q streets just before 11 p.m. The shooting took place away from the view of the security camera. Eighteen-year-old Maxwell Griffy was wounded and taken to Creighton University Medical Center where he died.

"I don't know how I'm going to do this, I don't know how I'm going to go to bed every night,” said his mom Rochelle Holland.

Clutching his picture when he was just five, Holland said Max was to begin his senior year at Burke High School and had a child on the way. Now she says, a senseless act has taken him away from her and those who loved him.

"His sisters, his brothers, his aunts, his uncles, everybody is just, it's a whole lot of people that just won't have the chance to seem him again, I don't want my son in memory, I want my son here."

Max was a mentor to younger brother Riley. "He meant everything, I looked up to him, older brother," said Riley Griffy.

With her heart broken and her mind overflowing with emotions, there was one thought Rochelle made clear. "It's time for it to stop, you know my son is dead, but the boy that shot him has to live with that. He's somebody's son that could possibly cause her to feel the way I'm feeling about my son."

Police have not made any arrests. Rochelle strongly urges his friends not to retaliate. She asks that if people want to help, come and see her and her family.

She also had some words for the gunman. "I don't hate you, I don't want to see anything bad happen to, but how dare you take my son, just how dare you take my child away from me."
