Who they were
On the same day, the holy martyrs Aristo, Crescentian, Eutychian, Urban, Vitalis, Justus, Felicissimus, Felix, Marcia, and Symphorosa. All were crowned with martyrdom in Campania, while the persecution of the Emperor Diocletian was raging.
The miracles
There was never a formal cause: he has been honoured as a saint since before the Church's formal processes began.
Why that counted as sanctity
The Dominican Martyrology (1955) remembers him on 2 July.
