A man has been charged in connection with a domestic-related shooting on Christmas Day that left one man dead and another wounded in the North Lawndale neighborhood on the West Side.
Lorenzo Jones, 29, of Iowa City, Iowa, is charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder and aggravated battery with discharge of a firearm, according to Chicago Police.
About 6 p.m. on Dec. 25, 2014, Jones shot two men during a domestic argument in the 1900 block of South Trumbull, a statement from police said.
