A Bronx organization held a wellness event to call for an end to violence in honor of Lesandro "Junior" Guzman-Feliz, three months after his murder outside a Belmont bodega.
Saturday's event in Belmont was organized by Young Bucks Sports Inc. to promote health and wellness for inner-city youth.
It featured activities such as stickball and handball, along with free giveaways.
Organizers say events like this help take the community back from violence.
Celebrity guests and Junior's parents were also in attendance for this weekend's event.
