A 47-year-old Chicago man has been charged in connection with a shooting that left a 55-year-old grandmother dead, and a security guard wounded in the Bronzeville neighborhood earlier this month.
Chicago security guard fired 20 shots while lying on ground, killing grandma 4 blocks away: prosecutors
A security guard wildly fired more than 20 rounds on a busy street without regard for who else could be hurt after he was shot in the leg during a confrontation with another man earlier this week, Cook County prosecutors said in court Friday. Police said Brown and Duncan had previously gotten into an argument outside Wood’s Food & Liquor on the block.
Cook County court records show Brown has been arrested at least 10 times, including for illegal gun possession, battery, domestic battery and armed robbery. Most the cases were dropped, but he pleaded guilty to domestic battery in 2015 and armed robbery without a firearm in 2010. He was given 100 days in Cook County Jail on the first case, and six years in the Illinois Department of Corrections on the other.Duncan faces one felony count of aggravated battery with a firearm. He was due in bond court on Tuesday.
