CHICAGO – Four people have been charged in the gang-related Chicago shooting involving an assault-style rifle that injured 13 people in a city park, including a 3-year old boy, police announced today.

“As of right now we have four offenders charged in this shooting, including the man who fired that military grade weapon and the man who supplied that military grade weapon,” police superintendent Garry McCarthy told a press conference.

Tabari Young, 22, Bryon Champ, 21, Brad Jett, 22, and Kewane Gatewood, 20, were all charged with three counts of attempted murder and aggravated battery with a firearm, McCarthy said.

Young, police said, was the main shooter in last Thursday’s incident in the Back of the Yards neighborhood on the city’s South Side. Champ, who police said also fired a gun, is a documented gang member who was convicted of a felony – unlawful use of a weapon by a felon – last year, but was only sentenced to boot camp, according to police. Gatewood, authorities said, supplied the military grade weapon and Jett participated as a lookout, McCarthy said.



Stand by for yet more legislative frenzy concerning the banning of 'assault weapons'...and no concern whatsoever on the part of legislators about cracking down on gang activities in our major cities.

I'm sure the media was really disappointed with the Naval Yard shooter guy for not actually having the AR-15 they were reporting he had too... Mellow

No time to click but what was the military grade weapon ? I'm thinking that is just put in there to add a bit of flava.
