Smith, who sported the belt during the celebration, noticed the frightened boy, who was with his father. He told Good Morning America that he handed the youngster the belt and told him, “Hey buddy, you’re the champion.” The shooting left 22 people injured, half of them under the age of 16, Police Chief Stacey Graves said.
