Foundation for slain 12-year-old collects more than 200 backpacks

Ayanna Brown holds a pair of cleats someone donated during a school-supplies drive she and her husband, Louis, held over the weekend for Alajawan's Hands, their foundation to benefit local kids in memory of their son. Alajawan Brown, 12, an avid football player, was gunned down in 2010 while walking home after buying a pair of cleats.
