Percy Lewis III was a recent graduate of Bridgewater-Raynham Regional High School and a member of the track team. He was one of four siblings born to Gabrielle and Percy II, and his younger brother Breydan is a star running back on the Bridgewater-Raynham Regional High School freshmen football team.

The organization expressed their condolences on Facebook, stating that Percy was a critical part of the team’s success.
The loss of Percy Lewis III comes as another tragedy for the Brockton Raiders. Just last Saturday, one of their players, Jovanni Perez, was shot and killed in Fall River. In July, the organization lost two brothers, Terry Boston Jr. and Makhi Boston, in a fatal car accident in Randolph.
A GoFundMe page has been created to support the Lewis family during this difficult time. The fundraiser aims to raise $20,000 to assist with the unexpected funeral expenses. The community has already donated over $12,000.
