NORTH COLLEGE HILL, Ohio — Parents and city leaders in North College Hill gathered Friday evening to address youth violence and find solutions after a recent student fight outside a local school led to criminal charges against two adults.

The community meeting took place at Greater Faith Ministries Church, where residents brainstormed ways to change the narrative around youth violence in their city.
