Thousands of mourners packed into a McDonough church Monday to bid farewell to Mitt Lenix. The Junior Olympic World Champion, who frequently appeared on ESPN, was killed last week at a drive-in theater in Atlanta.
Quentric Shaymond Williams, 32, of Lilburn, has been arrested and charged with Lenixs death.
