Start of a violent weekend in Chicago. A 12-year-old in the neighborhood was also shot.

From the link above:

"It's just the way the young boys think out here," said David Jones, 44, as he stood on Gladys with his 2-year-old grandson. "Some get a kick outta hearing the gun go off."

Hunh??? Where are these "boys" getting the guns? Someone needs to teach them the consequences of shooting off a gun and set an example for other boys who apparently have nothing better to do.
 
'A person has been charged in the shooting death of Shamiya Adams, according to Chicago Police News Affairs.'

'A teen was charged Wednesday night in the murder of Shamiya Adams, the 11-year-old girl who was struck by a stray bullet Friday night during a sleepover inside a West Side apartment, authorities said.

The suspect was identified as Tevin Lee, 18, who has no convictions as an adult, court records show. He was charged last year with separate misdemeanors – one for battery and the other for soliciting unlawful business -- but both charges were later dropped, according to the records.'

'A teenage gang member fired into a crowd of rivals “without care” in retaliation for a fistfight he wasn’t even involved in — but wound up killing an 11-year-old girl who was at a nearby building for a sleepover, police said Thursday.

Tevin Lee, 18, was charged with murder in the death of Shamiya Adams in the West Garfield Park neighborhood.'

The 18-year-old charged with killing 11-year-old Shamiya Adams wanted revenge for the earlier beating of a friend and opened fire on a group of boys even though his friend said his attackers were not in the group, prosecutors said today.

Tevin Lee bragged later that he thought he'd shot one of those responsible, but the only person who was struck was Shamiya, who was killed as she was about to make s'mores with friends, prosecutors said...

Judge Laura Sullivan ordered Lee held without bail.
