A 15-year-old boy has been charged with fatally shooting a man during an argument Monday morning in the West Garfield Park neighborhood.
The teen was arrested moments after shooting the 43-year-old man in the 4700 block of West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago police said Tuesday.
The man was struck in his armpit and leg around 11:40 a.m., and died later at Stroger Hospital, authorities said. He was identified as Tawoine Carter by the Cook County medical examiner’s office.
The boy, whose name wasn’t released because of his age, faces a count of first-degree murder.
