BALTIMORE — An Italian restaurant in downtown Baltimore is hosting a Thursday evening fundraiser for the family of slain Patterson High School student, Izaiah Carter.
Forno on Eutaw Street will offer various drink specials from 4-7pm, with 20 percent of the proceeds going to Carter's family.
Ricky Johnson, owner and head chef at Forno, says Carter had worked at the restaurant with his father and cousin who are both chefs there.
