Man charged in July slaying on South Side

A Chicago man has been charged in the July shooting death of a man in the Washington Park neighborhood.
Kenyada Clair, 18, is accused in the slaying of a man later identified Lorenzo Beasley, 25, of the 5200 block of South Prairie Avenue
The victim was in a parked vehicle about 7 p.m. July 16, in the 5200 block of South Martin Luther King Drive when a small grey sport utility vehicle pulled up alongside the man.
The driver of the SUV leaned out and fired multiple shots at the victim before fleeing northbound on King Drive. The victim drove north onto the parkway before crashing into a tree.
Clair, of the 7700 block of South Peoria Street, who is being held Cook County Jail for what police said were unrelated charges, faces first degree murder charges in Beasley’s slaying.
Court records show Clair was arrested July 20 on charges including robbery and unlawful posession of a stolen vehicle. He has since been charged with aggravated unlawful use of a weapon as well as a charge of resisting a corrections employee and is being held without bond.
