Murder charges have been filed against a 16-year-old boy in the shooting death of a 15-year-old boy earlier this month on the West Side.
The boy, charged as an adult, will be in court Thursday.
The victim, Ed Cooper of the 1200 block of South Kostner Avenue, was shot once in the chest at 5:08 p.m. on July 8 and pronounced dead at Mount Sinai Hospital at 5:54 p.m.
“The offender shot the victim once in the chest’’ .
An autopsy performed July 9 revealed the 15-year-old died of a gunshot wound to the chest and his death was ruled a homicide.
Police were dispatched to the block following a report of a person shot and found the boy.
Ed was playing a ballgame at the playground of Laura Ward Elementary School, formerly Ryerson Elementary, 646 N. Lawndale Ave., when he was shot,. Ryerson was one of 49 elementary schools closed this June by the district.

Now be sure to call in the big guns now, a young negro got killed.make your voices heard, like the ones are doing for that Martin thug.
Al sharpton and the rest of those non-violents, not the big guns. The underground is strong. Our leaders were forced to restructure in the late sixties. Ask your government, we still here.....out of sight, out of mind.......BLACK POWER.
Get that POWER to the streets and teach these males how to be real men.
In 20 years the only young black men will be stuffed in a case at the Field. Kids will buy wax figures of them.
The killing is out of control, too many are lost to violence, prison, drugs.
Everybody does not have to Harvard. The community needs black owned small business.
You trying to rebuild a community within the structure that the white man put in place, in the white mans backyard. While he is sitting in a recliner orchestrating events. The power is in the streets but its not in your homes. We are competeing with playstation, LiL wayne and other controlled brainwashing techniques that are used for distractions. Everything starts at home for kids they may not be able to remember being born but they remember bottles/books and mothers and fathers. Educate yourself to pass it down, more precious than any metal........BLACK POWER.
Time to MARCH!!!!!!! Lmmfao!!!!!!! Aint nobody give a fuck if you do or not!!!!!
Even if you had small business , the thugs would rob you anyway. Blacks don't care who you are,they would rob their momma....
