An 18-year-old man has been charged with shooting two girls as they walked
from a park in the West Pullman neighborhood on Tuesday.
Jermaine A. Louis, of the 11700 block of South Laflin Street, was charged
with two counts of aggravated battery with a firearm. He lives about 3 blocks
from where the girls were shot.
The girls were wounded Tuesday night about 8 p.m. near Cooper Park in the
1300 block of West 117th Street. Police don't believe the girls were the
targets.
The two girls wounded were walking with two others when they were shot. The
younger girl was shot twice in the abdomen and the younger girl wounded in the
buttocks.
Louis turned himself in earlier this week. His surrender was worked out by
the man's lawyer after
the man's family learned he was being sought by police about Tuesday night's
shooting of Tishona Turner, 13, and Nakia Polk, 12.
