'He made a huge impact on the youth': Man killed was beloved boxer
Family and friends are mourning a Baltimore boxer who was killed Thursday in a mass shooting. Many who knew Ernest Hall, 32, called him "Ernie Bug" and said he wanted to ensure children had opportunities. He was a coach at the Lightning Quick Fit boxing gym on Morton Street in midtown, and he was training for a fight on April 1 in New Jersey. Those who knew Hall said he could make the whole place light up. He was at the gym four hours before he was shot and killed at the Princess Plaza Shopping Center on Edmondson Avenue in west Baltimore. Witnesses said they heard multiple shots. Police told 11 News officers responded to a ShotSpotter alert, and from their investigation, they now know multiple shooters got out of a vehicle and fired their weapons.
