Authorities found the body of a 17-year-old boy on Thursday who was apparently beaten to death at the “I Promise School” basketball court in Akron, Ohio.
The teen student was identified as Ethan Liming and was discovered in a parking lot near the courts at about 10:45 p.m., the Akron Beacon Journal reported. His identity was confirmed by the Summit County Medical Examiner’s Office.
Police were dispatched after a 911 call in which Liming’s friends explained that they got involved in a fight with at least three other people who were also present at the court playing basketball.
Liming was “brutally assaulted” during the fight and knocked unconscious, according to police. His death is being investigated as a homicide….
