His death prompted many community leaders to come together.
"Our hood our job, and that means that no matter where we are in what neighborhood, that is our responsibility to shift and change Baltimore City. If we can change, Baltimore City will change, but it's going to be the participation of individuals that believe," said Elijah Miles, Chairman of The Tendea Family.
